FIrst PC Build Plan [SOLVED]

[TheHauntingmint]

As this is my first gaming rig, I need some help in terms of compatibility, some cheaper parts that have the same if not better performance, etc. As I live in Australia the prices are in AUD and replace some of the prices as PC PartPicker does not have them. I do work in 3D (revit and inventor, with blender on the way) and building a new pc to replace my crappy laptop will become a huge benefit, with a bonus in playing Games at 1080p or 1440p gaming over 30fps if achievable (as in the likes of GTA V on ultra and rainbow six seige on ultra). Mouswe and Keyboard and other peripherals have already been covered. 

*These prices are based of my research

Why a B250 board? Cant overclock, need Z270 (Or z170) to do so and is a waste to get unlocked CPU otherwise. R7 would be much better for those rendering workloads, since they would benefit from more cores.

old and missing protections so skip it for something else.

It works completely fine and still great value for performance, if you know better offering at the Australian market right now do point it out for us instead of just giving the generic LTT shitpost

the CX650M for $2.70 more is much better and newer than the S12ii, not to mention far newer.

cut it with the attitude, is it so hard to just respond nicely instead of spamming the funny button and calling it shitposting?

Just a few questions about that.

Will this mean that I'll have to change my case to fit an ATX board that you suggested?

Can you also please specify which R7 you are talking about in terms of CPU?

you can always get an m-atx z270 mobo, no need to get an atx board.

Holy, that is a good build, I highly thank you for that!

With the added cost of the sound card and Graphics card, that is a total of: $2374.1 AUD. Not a bad price.

Didn't any recommend any specific board, can find micro atx Z270 boards (Or B350 for ryzen). A 1700 should be ideal.

Ah, misunderstanding on my part. Sorry about that. And thank you for the suggestions.
