[SOLVED] Is this a good build?

[Kajshsj]

I haven’t built a pc before and just looking for some reassurance that everything will fit together and work well
Hardware I’m getting:

Ryzen 5 2600

Gigabyte b450m ds3h

Corsair vengeance lpx 16 gb (2x4) ddr4 3000

Kingston 480gb ssd

Msi Radeon rx580 8gb

Cooler master master box q300l micro atx mini tower case

Evga 500w 80+ bronze power supply

2x Corsair air series white 2 pack 120mm fans

My main worry is whether the motherboard I’m getting will be able to support the amount of fans As I think the case has one fan pre installed. The motherboard website said it only had 2 fan headers tho...
Does that mean I can only power 2 fans?

You can split fan headers to two or more, depending how much amps does the fan use.
If the fan uses 0.2A and fan header max somwhere is stated 1A. Soo you can plug 4 by splitters (you have to leave a bit of headroom, you dont wanna burn the PWM chip).
For me build seems fine, but I would add an HDD for games tho.

the 580's can pull about 300 watts alone... get a better quality PSU.

Thanks, Would it be good if I just got a 1tb hdd and no ssd?

Ryzen 5 2600

Gigabyte b450m ds3h micro atx am4 motherboard

Corsair vengeance lpx 2x8gb ddr4 3000 ram

Western digital 1tb internal hard drive

Msi Radeon rx 580 8gb armor oc graphics card

Coolermaster masterbox q300l micro atx mini tower case

Evga b3 650 W 80+ bronze certified fully modular atx power supply

Corsair air series white 2 pack 52.19 cfm 120mm fan (they r like £20 is it worth splashing out on 2 fans/will 2 fans be enough/will they be compatible)

Decent build.

 

[RememberThe5th]

I've suggested HDD since you wont record/stream (or you havent mentioned) and can add SSD later as boot drive (And a bit of an hassle cause you have to reinstall windows on new patrition).
Or bite it and buy HDD later. Your choice.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

I agree , needs a better quality PSU.

Is the psu in my second list good enough?

Corsair air series white 2 pack 52.19 cfm 120mm fan (I think I will need a fan splitter because my motherboard will only have 2 headers and the case comes with a pre installed fan. Is there a specific splitter I need or will any do?)

The build looks good but I'm not a fan of the EVGA B3 PSU's, I think a few of them that TH reviewed failed during OPP testing.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

B3'S ARE OK , but I'd want a G2 or G3.

 

[Kajshsj]

I think I’ll go with a corsair tx550m gold 80+. Is that ok?

Much better!

WOOHOO! Its actually cheaper than the B3. 550w will Be enough tho right? I read into the b3s and it was too scary for me lol

550W is plenty for your build and overclocking if desired.

TXM 550 is decent but the fan can get loud.

I don’t mind too much about noise so should be fine : )
