Hi, I'm going to be building my first PC.
After a bit of building and weighing options, I've got this.
Someone told me I should downgrade my GPU, and upgrade my CPU and my motherboard.
He said bottlneck issues would happen.
Someone else told me the whole thing should be fine.
It's for games.


I appreciate any advice I can get.

Just made a few ammendments to fit the case a little more. Sorry for a slightly more expensive build
