my other topic seems to be dead, so I'm making a new one, starting with the build I now have in mind
aside from this build, I'm also looking for advice on a store that ships to Europe (specifically, the Netherlands) if someone could point me in the right direction, that would be helpful
I also want to know if these parts are all compatible with each other, I think they are, but I'm still pretty green when it comes to Hardware, so I'd like to know if I have enough slots/ports and everything to support all the components, and that everything fits inside the case
I apologize for not linking anything, I tried, but this computer kept crashing whenever I switch tabs
Case:
I was recommended a Carbide 300R or 500R, but I didn't like them, so I dropped those, and instead I have several other options
once I have decided on my case, I would also like to fill all optional fan slots, but I'm not sure what the maximum fan size is for each case, I'd be grateful if someone could help me with that:
