[SOLVED] Advice on a new system

[brigadioras]

Hello!

I hope you guys are doing well.

The time has come to build a new PC. I thought what would be a better place than tomshardware to ask for some advice.

My budget is around 500 EUR (will be using my old GPU for now) and I have a few questions.

I have settled on the new i5-13400f (since the price difference between the 12400f is only 40 EUR)
For the motherboard I chose the Gigabyte B660M DS3H DDR4.
For RAM I chose the Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200Mhz CL16 4x8GB.
PSU: EVGA 650 BR 650 W.
M.2: Gigabyte M30 512GB (looking for a fast and a cheaper one).
I plan on upgrading my GPU to something like a RTX 3060-3070 later.

I wanted to hear your opinion on the parts, maybe something could be changed. Also I heard that choosing a good motherboard is actually important these days (something to do with power hungry CPU's and VRM's if planning to upgrade later). Would the motherboard also be compatible with the CPU out of the box?

Looking forward to your answers!

My options were:

Cooler Master MWE V2 650W BRONZE 230V
EVGA BR or the EVGA BQ 650W 230V

I would consider buying a more expensive one, just I'm getting really close to my budget🙁

You get a five year warranty with the EVGA BQ ... that's not bad.

Yeah, and its modular.

This the exact one going for 77 EUR. Should I just get it?

Get it before it's sold out.
