Hey everyone! I'm finalizing the parts list for my new ITX PC build and I need your feedback. I think everything's compatible, especially since the 7800 XT should fit in my Cooler Master NR200 case. I saw a post showing that a bigger card, the 7900 XTX, fits, so I'm hopeful! Here's what I've got:
|**Component**|**Model**|**Price (AUD)**|
|:-|:-|:-|
|**CPU**|AMD Ryzen 5 7600 (with Wraith Stealth, unused)|$319|
|**CPU Cooler**|Thermalright AXP-90 X53 Low Profile (White)|$55|
|**Motherboard**|Gigabyte A620I-AX (DDR5, ITX)|$229|
|**GPU**|PowerColor Radeon RX 7800 XT Hellhound OC 16GB|$899|
|**RAM**|Corsair Vengeance 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5-6000 CL30|$169|
|**Case**|Cooler Master NR200 Mesh ITX (White)|$79|
|**Power Supply**|Corsair SF850 Platinum SFX 850W|$278|
I appreciate any input on my part choices! Thanks!

Everything looks pretty solid! Just curious about your choice of low-profile cooler? Do you think it will do a good job cooling the Ryzen 5?
As someone who switched from ITX, I’d recommend looking into micro ATX instead. I used to have the NR200P and found it too restrictive, both in space and price. With MATX, you can often get better performance for the same footprint, just a bit taller.
Thanks for the advice! I'm in a small dorm, though, so I really need something compact that I can move easily. ITX just seems to fit my needs right now.
I went with the low-profile cooler because I thought it would be better than the stock Wraith Stealth. Plus, I heard the Phantom Spirit is a good fit too. Just trying to play it safe since I’ve never built in this case before!
