Hey everyone! I'm currently putting together my PC and I'm just a few parts short. Here's what I have so far:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D 4.1 GHz 6-Core Processor
- Motherboard: MSI PRO B650M-P Micro ATX AM5 Motherboard
- Memory: TEAMGROUP T-Force Delta RGB 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR5-6000 CL38
- Video Card: PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 XT 16 GB
- Case: Lian Li Lancool 207 ATX Mid Tower Case
- Power Supply: MSI MAG A850GL PCIE5 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular
I'd like to know if it's okay for me to choose a cheaper motherboard and power supply. Any thoughts on alternative cases that might suit my build better?

What do you mean by full connectivity?
For your motherboard, I'd suggest going with an ATX sized one. It fits nicely with your case and gives you all the ports and connections you might need. For the PSU, you can't go wrong with a Corsair RM model since they tend to be very reliable.
By full connectivity, I mean that an ATX motherboard will have more ports and slots for things like additional drives, better expansion options, and more USB connections, which can be super helpful in the long run.
