First Build Feedback

[Jorge_19]

Hi, this is my first build which is going to be done with my dad as a joint effort. The PC will be used as a office PC for just regular word processing and things like that but also sustainable for multitasking and HD video streaming which I think the CPU/ build can handle. My budget is not much over £500 and I was wondering if the parts I have picked are a good choice. Can you give some feedback or improvements.

Also, I'm getting confused on how many sata power and data cables I need as I am quite new to this techy stuff . I'm going to have a ssd, a hdd(out a previous pc) and a optical drive. Also fyi this is my first post. Thanks you in advance.

I kept you under £500, but upgraded your CPU,saved a few pounds on memory, and a better power supply unit. Corsair does make very good PSUs (think their RM series). The CX series is not a good PSU.

Look for PSUs from the Tier 1 or Tier 2 list.

DDR4 2400 is overkill with that board, since it can only handle DDR4-2133. The board would simply underclock the RAM to 2133. Everything else is fine.
