So, after having my current PC build for about 9 years I am finally going to build a new machine within the next month. I'm trying to get caught up on all the new technology now in desktop builds. I've seen videos from PC Builder on YouTube (hope this guy knows his stuff; he seems to) and based on one of his recent videos I generated an all AMD build on PCPartPicker
Need input, please. How does this build look? I'm trying to keep it under $1200 for a decent PC. I'm not a heavy gamer that much any more since having a little one but I would like to play some of the newer games. Specifically, I would like to get Cyberpunk 2077 soon to play. Most of the time I'm playing Insurgency: Sandstorm.
Here's the build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nDfZmD
There was an interesting note at the bottom that states this:
Should I go with the B650-S? I actually didn't see it as an option when I was going through the picker a second time after reading that note. Also, I read somewhere on the memory that I needed to pay close attention to timing in the CL30 when building the machine or else I could see some instability. Any concerns there with that build?
Thanks.

There was an interesting note at the bottom that states this:
"The MSI PRO B650-S WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard has an additional 8-pin EPS power connector but the MSI MAG A650BN 650 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply does not have any available. This connector is used to supply additional current. While the system will likely still run without it, higher current demands or extreme overclocking may require it."
