That's a good start mate, what's your total budget for this build?

- I would drop the cooler as you'll get one in the box with the i5
- You could get a cheaper motherboard too if you wanted
- The 525GB MX300 isn't much more than the 275 so you should definitely consider it

My budget is around 1150 pounds, but that is including a monitor im thinking of getting a 24", 1ms, 144hz..

- Isnt it smart to get an extra cooler, or is it enough with the one that comes with the Cpu?
- I will try to look for another Mobo then, Thanks!
- I would like another Ssd, but the ones that i have looked at doesnt ship to my country so i might get that from the .com page

Sorry, I assumed you were in the UK

Cooler - The one that comes with the CPU is more than enough
Mobo - This one should do just as good: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01N2Y2GLP/?tag=pcp0f-21
