I am trying to find a parts list for my first build, and this one looked pretty good on the website. Anyone see any problems or improvements that keep the price around $600?
CPU AMD Ryzen 5 1400
MOBO MSI B350M
GPU EVGA GTX 1060 3GB
RAM Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB
HDD Seagate 1 TB
CASE VIVO V01
PSU Antec VP-450W
ODD Samsung 24x SATA
 
Solution
My recommendation.
A better mobo is worth it over a higher wattage PSU which wouldn't see any advantage with the system.

Oh, I am not sure I can get an ethernet cable into my room right away. Is wireless capability part of the motherboard? Aren't there antennas you can plug into the computer too?
