Is there anything wrong with this build?

[Deleted member 2346816]

I'm planning to buy these parts and build a pc, are there any incompatibilities that I might face building the pc or anything i should change? (I'm aware of motherboard bios update)

How do you plan to do the BIOS update, you need a compatible CPU?

Personally I thing Ryzen is a better investment than an i5 for any use. As games are starting to use more than 4 threads the future of the i5 doesn't look as good in my opinion.

A 450w psu is marginal for a GTX1080.
You can buy a tier 2 Seasonic S12II 520w for $30 after rebate:

That 450w is a little small. I'd push that up to a 600w one for some headroom. So the cx650m would be good instead of your 450 one. However, you may as well just go for fully modular if you're spending that sort of money, so the rm650x would be a better choice if you wish to stay with corsair:

u can update it through flash on this motherboard.

I thought 450W would be enough because the estimation for my build was 375W, thank you.

I might be wrong but I think it still needs a compatible CPU installed. The manual doesn't seem to say one way or another so I might be wrong.
