Building PC for my friend ITX build - R5 2600

dgsddfgdfhgs

So finally my friend decided to buy a new PC in two weeks,

he wants small ITX size pc, non gamer, no RGB, want this pc to last as long as possible,  location: HK

 

he will be using his old graphics card, inno3d gtx750ti, http://www.inno3d.com/products_detail.php?refid=218

it claims to be 190mm long, and a 6pin required at end of card.

 

this is the parts I am think of so far

Interestingly ITX mobo wasnt that expensive, compared to a m-atx plus pci wifi card lol

some how the 2600x is around 15% more than 2600

the rams in hk is still high, this the the cheapest I can find, still at HKD600...

 

First, will there be any clearance issue?

any parts I should change?

I know cable management in ITX case is quite challenging, any alternate good case?

 

any thoughts? thanks in advance

Check your clearance between PSU and CPU cooler. It looks like the PSU mounts above the Mobo so you'll be limited in Cooler height. Easiest way to ensure clearance would be to get an AIO, but low profile air coolers should work fine also. Stock AMD cooler might be fine as well.

btw a spare 12cm fan will be added, but I am a bit concerned on the vents, looks like too many holes for dust to go in, how do you do cleaning in such compact case? any preventive measures?

If i am correct, there is only one spot for a 12cm fan to go. Make that fan intake air to create positive air pressure in the case. That will help to keep dust out. Also you could buy a dust filter for that fan.
