[SOLVED] Build comment/advice: £500/USD600 build for light gaming

[R3indeer]

I'm building a pc for my gf, budget of about £500/USD600 (+-100). She'll mainly be using it for light gaming (Sims, Civ 6 etc), browsing and work. I've got this planned so far, wondering if people have any comments or would like to even propose an entirely new build for me, I'm all ears. Much appreciated! PS: the £81 RX 570 was a manufacturer refurb card that was recommended to me. I'm unsure about the case, as I've read reviews about it having poor thermals.

Looks pretty good for 1080p. Check the case you picked. I think it only has a single fan in the rear. You'll want a 140mm fan in front for sure. Here's a better power supply for a small increase in cost-
Corsair TXM 550W Gold

I'm unsure whether to go for the AsRock B450m Pro4 or the MSI B450m Pro-VDH MAX....

Anyone have any thoughts on this, or knows which is better?

You can go with either board. The MSI MAX Series launched along with Ryzen 3rd gen. CPUs, so they are equipped with a 32 MB BIOS chip (instead of a 16 MB chip on older B450 motherboards) that allows for support for all AM4 processors supported by the chipset and support for the familiar, full-featured MSI UEFI BIOS (Click BIOS 5).
