First build/Air flow enquiry

[Derick0]

3 questions
1.This build good for general gaming/web browsing?

case:Corsair CCSPEC-02
cpu: Pentium G4560 3.5GHz
gpu:Rx 480 4gb
mobo:Asus h110M-K
memory:Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x4gb
psu:Coolermaster masterwatt lite 500w
storage:240gb ssd
cpu fan:Coolermaster Hyper t4
case fan:Corsair af120 (power draw of 0.40 A)

2.Also Ive heard that the rx 480 g1 can get really hot quite easily. Generally im just wondering what an ideal airflow would be for my build? I've only bought 1 airflow fan and the case comes with 2 120mm fans which i dont have much information on.

3.As well as ways i could connect my fans since other than 1 4pin cpu fan connector i only have 1 4pin chassis fan connector on my motherboard.

Thank you c:

1. The CPU you got is a 7th-gen Intel CPU; the motherboard you got has an H110 chipset. Though the CPU can physically fit, you would need a BIOS update work that 7th-gen (Kaby Lake) CPU to work with the H110 motherboard (which was designed during the release of 6th-gen Skylake CPUs). To eliminate the hassle of updating the BIOS and incompatibility issues, I would suggest either: 1) Getting a 6th-gen Intel CPU (which would work with the H110 motherboard out-of-the-box); or, 2) Replacing that H110 motherboard with a B250 motherboard (supports 7th-gen Intel CPUs out-of-the-box).

The GPU you got (RX 480) is one of the top-of-the-line GPUs for 1080p/60Hz gaming (the other one being the GTX 1060). Pairing this powerful GPU with a less powerful CPU (such as the Intel Pentium G4560) **might** hinder its maximum possible performance (depending on the game and in-game detail settings/resolution/eye-candy). For budget builds, the Pentium G4560 is one of the best price/performance (almost like an i3 due to its hyperthreading support). If budget could be stretched, pairing the RX 480 (or GTX 1060) with an i5, esp. for gaming, would be nice. If not, the G4560 would suffice (but with a slight chance of bottlenecking, depending on the game). Alternatively, to save cost, you can also opt for an RX 470 which is also capable of "general" gaming on 1080p-resolution.

The PSU is not the best out there in terms of efficiency, built, and warranty. I would personally go for a better quality PSU such as the Seasonic G-550, EVGA SuperNOVA G3 550W, or the more affordable Seasonic M12II-520 EVO.

The CPU Cooler (fan) is optional. To save money, even the included Intel Stock CPU Cooler can be used.

2. I would get an additional fan (for a total of 4x) and set them up as 2x front intake fans, 1x rear exhaust fan, and 1x top exhaust fan.

3. This will depend on the final motherboard you will select (based on my comments on #1). However, should you choose a motherboard that only has 1x chassis fan connector, you have several options to power said fans: 1) use a splitter (but making sure that the total ampere draw of all connected fans drawing off of 1 header would be ~0.75A for headroom clearance); or 2) connect some fans via 4-pin-to-molex connector and have those specific fans run at 100%; or 3) get a fan controller; or 4) get a fan hub; or 5) a combination of options 1-4.
