Hey everyone, I'm 14 years old and have put a lot of thought into this $1500 PC build I'm planning. It's going to be mainly for gaming and CAD design, so I really want to make sure I'm choosing the right components. Since I'm saving up, every dollar matters, and this is also my first build. Here's the list I've put together: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/79pn4p. Do you think I've picked the right case and parts?

That case is actually fantastic! I've got the same one for my home server, and it’s super easy to build in. Just so you know, if you can find RAM that’s 6000MHz CL30 instead of CL36, that would be a better pick—check out the Patriot Viper sticks! Also, don’t forget to budget for a good CPU. The 5800X3D is a sweet spot for gaming right now if you can swing it! Just confirm that your total is still around $1500 after everything, including peripherals.
Since you’re buying most parts from Amazon, I’d suggest waiting for the Prime Day sales from July 8 to July 11. You might find some great deals that could stretch your budget further!
Yeah, I was actually planning to hold off until then!
