Any thoughts on this

I put this parts list together and am looking for some advice. Critics welcome. I haven't built in over a decade and I forgot the rule of thumb. https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder-amd.aspx?load=922a468e-e5e4-4147-8bed-8eab29995dce

Hello @Tony2

Thank you for posting on the Micro Center Community!

Taking a look at your build, the first thing I noticed were the amount of drives you have. You can definitely do all kinds of drives in your build, but I do think you can use either an M.2 or a 2.5'' rather than both with the first build. Then you can add an additional SSD if needed later.

I also noticed you had Corsair Thermal Paste, which is fine if you plan on removing your AIO every now and then, but for a first time build, your AIO will has preapplied thermal paste or come with it's own thermal paste in a tube.

Other than that, everything does look good to me.

Thank you. Will there be assistance in microcenter because I want to take advantage of there build service. I'm also curious if I can reserve and prepay the items currently sold out?
