This will be my first build and I want to know before I buy anything if everything will fit and if this is the best Mini-Itx I can get for my money.
I also have a couple of other questions:
-Will the i3 bottleneck the gpu?
-PC partpicker says wattage is 269W. Is that true? Is my psu good enough?
-I know nothing about buying monitors either. Is this one good enough?
-I am not an audiophile. I just want cheap speakers that will play sound without static. How are these?
I also wanted the cheapest ambidextrous mouse that will do the job...so yeah I just took a guess on that one.
Thanks for all your help!
