Wow that's what a similar spec pc cost 2-3 years ago. nice.

The 1500 already comes with a cooler, so you can go without the Hyper 212 and save a few bucks.

You can grab that 25 pounds on cooler and get a better CPU, maybe a 2600, or 1700x? Depends on the price in your region.

Or maybe invest in a better GPU, depending on price of course.

Buy an R5 1600 at minimum

 

grab an ASrock Pro4 or MSI tomahawk B450 board since they have heatsinks on both VRMs

 

get 3000mhz RAM

It looks like an 8GB RX 580 isn't much more expensive

Probably buy a newer PSU like a CX 2017 or Masterwatt 550W

And I'd highly suggest buying a USB DVD if for some reason you still need a DVD drive since you can move it between PCs or whatever.

Thanks, I have removed the hard drive as I have the 2 from my old system and added 16gb ram as I play a lot of demanding games and edit video
