So I want to build my brother a pc and this is what I've made. Note that the prices are in Australian and I will be buying my PC Case Gear. Also I'm not using PC Part Picker as it sometimes doesn't have the same parts etc.  If you don't like me not using PC Part Picker you don't have to comment. Windows is also legit as we can get it from a University.

I don't think you have to go for the mini version of the GPU with this case, and are you sure the CPU cooler will fit? anyhow with this case I would probably rather go with AIO watercooling

The cpu cooler height is like 63mm. And the c7 is 47mm.

I want to get the mini gpu just in case. Also because I don't want something to long in there.
