So I had just about decided on this when I realised that it's a tight fit on my desk, so I have made this which is slightly cheaper and would fit perfectly on my desk, I just need to know if it is all fine, I already checked the dimensions but am a little unsure about the motherboard

use PC partpicker, it will tell you ;) im pretty sure thats fine though

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

For the dimensions you are good.

 

On the parts side just bear in mind that you are getting a board based on the H310 chipset which means no overclocking capabilities so it's kind of a waste to get a 8600K CPU. Difference in price with the non-K version is negligible but if you do not want to overclock you might even go down to the i5-8400 as the difference in performance will be minimal.

Thanks for the advice but I really like having the best cpu for some tasks like universe sandbox 2 and video rendering (not often) and no i'm not overclocking, the cpu is also to outdo mate who has an old i7
