Hello, I was seeing if you could help me as I really need help with my build guide. Here is the link https://pcpartpicker.com/user/idelarosa1/saved/#view=p9... Anyways I need help in components as I am still not a hundred percent sure on what to do. I would like to keep it as cheap as possible, but also you have to keep in mind that I am going to need this to last me 10 years as I am planning on letting this build help me through college (I'm 15). Any help, no matter what it is would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

You don't need 4 fans, or a CPU Cooler, or Thermal Paste, or both a wired and wireless network adapter (the motherboard has networking of its own)

 

Seagate Drives are not very reliable, Hitachis are more reliable

An SSD would help you out a ton

That PSU isn't good

Motherboard is a bit pricey

You're way overpaying for that keyboard imo, but eh

Well it's doable, just don't expect to run the newest AAA games at max settings all the time for 10 years.
