Hey guys!

I just want to make sure if I'm doing this right. I am building first "custom build" PC (#hyped).

So here are the components:

I already own kinda new HDD so there is no need for new one.

 

Thanks for the answers !

These are nice parts. For an AMD system they are very good and in general, a quality choice. Although I'd suggest that you get an SSD for boot and a new HDD for storage, since old HDD'd tend to fail more easily than the new ones. If you feel OK to use it go right ahead, but an SSD for boot is a must these days.

Thanks. I was thinking about that too. I would buy SSD later on.

I am sure there are much better builds than this one.

My i5 6500 is bad and can't even maintain 4.5ghz, and 4.4ghz causes it to slowly become unstable over weeks with a vcore of 1.395. FML
