I’m living in Japan and most of the parts you mentioned above are just too expensive here. Why is 450W more preferable than 650W?

 

[Lucky_SLS]

Hmm, I think Asus products would be a bit cheap there? I dunno abt case though. And abt psu, a 450w is enough. A better quality higher wattage psu is even more so.

Yes it is but the one you mentioned is 3gb. Would that be enough? Also,the motherboard,psu and case are just too darn pricey

 

[Lucky_SLS]

If you are OK with medium-high graphics details in AAA games, go with 3gb. Ultra settings will take up more than 3gb vram.
You can also consider the rx570 4gb if it's cheaper.
