Advice on new build

[Special Agent 星雨]

Friend showed me the parts for his new PC, I will post a screenshot of the parts in this post. My only concern for his parts is the power supply which according the linustechtips power supply tier list is a tier 6 power supply which I wholeheartedly do not recommend, apart from that everything else looks fine. What do you guys think?

If it's in Australian dollars then it's a good build for the money. You should switch to an Corsair CX450M PSU instead.

I thought the CX series from Corsair were also relatively bad power supplies?

The older generations were bad but the current one is much better.

the green label CX's are bad, the white/grey/silver label ones are pretty decent.
