Hey everyone! I'm about to order parts for my very first PC build and want to make sure everything looks good before I hit that purchase button. I'm trying to keep the total cost under £1000. Here's my build list:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X 4.7 GHz 6-Core Processor for £161.09 from Amazon UK
- **CPU Cooler**: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE CPU Cooler for £24.98 from CCL Computers
- **Motherboard**: MSI B650M GAMING PLUS WIFI Micro ATX AM5 Motherboard for £129.97 from Amazon UK

Your build looks pretty solid! Just a heads up, the 1000W power supply is more than you really need for this setup. You might want to consider a lower wattage model to save a bit of cash.
Do you think it would be better to go with a lower wattage? I didn't see too much of a price difference and thought 1000W might be worth it for any potential future upgrades.
