GPU help all another parts ordered. I need some of your opinions should I worry about this graphic card not having longevity as some reviews have been not so flattering? DOA or lasting a few months. We will not be seriously gaming on this PC and only doing YouTube content creation.

Thx.

The build looks fine and nothing I'd recommend now would be worth the hassle of returning the parts you've ordered.

As for the GPU I'd save some money and get the Nvidia reference version.

I'm currently building a system for my friends kid for xmas using the same motherboard/case/PSU. Case is excellent quality despite the low price tag and the motherboard cannot be beat for the price. Waiting for the PSU to come in so I can get it up and running so I could let you know how it goes as far as working in the BIOS to get the memory to run at the correct speed (usually via AXMP) and ease of updating. PSU should be in today.

Got the build up and running (using it now). The ASRock motherboard was a good choice, everything worked perfectly out of the box and the BIOS was easy to navigate and to get the memory to run at 3200mhz.
