First time building (so never applied thermal paste or anything). Trying to spend no more than 1.4k; would like a smaller form factor. First impression after selecting these parts and looking at other builds was that CPU might be overpowered for the GPU, but I figure that gives me upgrade options, right? Anyway, all feedback welcome.

Comments

  • Hi! Overall looks pretty good but I definitely recommend getting a better CPU cooler. Noctua is pretty reliable with their coolers. Here are some options: https://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.aspx?Ntt=noctua&Ntx=mode+MatchPartial&Ntk=all&sortby=match&N=4294804002&myStore=true
