So basically, summer has started and I would like to save up some money and start building this PC for school (High School), I have chosen the computers and networks group, and I heard that you need a PC since there's going to be a lot of practical stuff, so I would like to know 2 things...

A) Should I change anything in this build?

B) How many fans should I place to get the best airflow?

Thanks a lot to anyone who helps

what's your budget? there's some things i'd change in your build.

You could use a cheaper PSU (such as one from tiers 1 to 3 on the PSU tier list linked in my sig), therefore saving money to be spent on a better graphics card/CPU/RAM..etc Also, fan amount doesn't really matter, the S340 already comes with a few.

hi!

for me, your build is unbalanced. except if look is more important than performance to you. a 100$ case lay be prettier than a 40$ or less one, but with a 40$ one you could afford a 1060. also you could get a bronze power supply, to have an even better graphic card, or a better ssd (128GB SSD might be just too small for me).

 

anyway, good luck with your build!

Could you please give me info on what you would change? So I could just check the prices? Budget is really in the range of 600-700 and a little more if possible

imo you're spending abit too much on the case, psu(it's good, but you can get something alittle cheaper and spend it somewhere else), ram and mobo.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Heatsink: Gelid Phantom Black GPU: Palit RTX 3060 Ti Dual RAM: Corsair DDR4 2x8GB 3000Mhz mobo: Asus X570-P case: Fractal Design Define C PSU: Superflower Leadex Gold 650W
