Need Help Choosing Parts

MountainCat

I put this parts list together and am looking for some advice. This is my first time building so I'm not quite sure if I went overboard anywhere. I'm trying to make something good for gaming and some streaming for fun that will last me a while! I really want to go for a clean white RGB build so let me know if you have any suggestions for me! https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder-amd.aspx?load=fa2a4857-636a-4772-8675-86d72c3345e3

Hello @MountainCat

Thank you for posting on the Micro Center Community!

Taking a look at your build, the first thing I noticed was your Case and Motherboard have a small incompatibility. Your motherboard will fit fine, however your motherboard lacks a USB-C Header meaning the USB-C Port on the case will not work. You can get a version of your case without the USB-C or even be ok with having a dead USB-C Port on your case.

Everything else looks good, with the only small adjustment I would recommend bring a change of your GPU to an ASUS GPU IF and BIG IF available. ASUS GPUs will work with iCUE alongside your motherboard and other corsair products you have. However I wouldn't make this a make or break decision, and finding any GPU at this moment is a good pick.

@TSPhillipT Thanks for the advice! I'll certainly look around and see if I can find a compatible motherboard, as for the GPU this was the only option given when I was putting the parts list together at the time. Would you have any advice on what I should look for when searching?
