Hey everyone! I'm putting together my first PC build and I want to know if the components I've chosen are good enough. Here's the link to my build: [PCPartPicker List](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Xkn8h7). I'm also wondering if I need to buy a CPU cooler or additional fans, as I heard some systems might need them. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Yeah, you’re definitely going to need a CPU cooler unless you're planning to really lower the voltage to keep temperatures down, which could limit performance. I suggest getting some additional fans as well; your case only comes with one, and having at least one more for intake and one for exhaust would help a lot. You might also want a fan splitter since your motherboard only has three fan headers. And for the PSU, check the tier list and aim for one that's at least B tier.
Your build looks solid for a budget setup! Just a tip, you might save some cash by choosing RAM with a lower speed.
Thank you!
Thanks for the advice! Would this case with fans work instead? [DIYPC ATX Case](https://www.newegg.com/diypc-atx-case-steel-tempered-glass-cases-black-argb-n5-bk/p/N82E16811353257)
