I am planning to build a new PC and which is going to be the first time. I would be grateful if someone looked at the list and gave me a few critics.
I selected Asus PRIME Z390-A which has good reviews with CPU Intel 9700K. I checked components compatibilities: CPU, M2 (M) supported by the motherboard, dimmensions of M2 and the video card, no. of SATA ports etc. The things I am not certain about is memory and case itself. I don't know if I should pay more for faster memory and reduce to 16GB as well as how to select a good case for me. As a side note, I would also like to think of a case that can be supplied with custom quiet fans. Long time ago I read about solutions to reduce dust getting inside the case.
Also, I am thinking of supplying a new comp with my old components, such as HDDs (2TB Seagate Barracude, Western Digital Black 4TB and Samsung SSD Evo 500MB) and SCSI PCIe card which I use with an audio interface. I might think of getting rid of Seagate but I'd like to keep at least the 4TB HDD and the 500MB SSD.
I would be grateful for any comments. THanks
