I've been working on a new PC build, and I was wondering whether everything would fit in the case I am using?
Or is there some simple way to find out?

Here's the parts list: https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/RkQ8TC

if you have any ideas on possible changes i could make to improve the setup, feel free to share those too 😀
 
Solution
Well, the card I'd have picked which was the EVGA RTX 2070 Super isn't realistically priced in your region compared to the 5700 XT, so you can scratch that. Especially for the EVGA XC Ultra gaming, which doesn't seem to be available there at all.

But I'd definitely choose a case with better airflow than that NZXT case. NZXT has been slammed for poor airflow in their cases for years now, but they seem to refuse to change things so........


I'd make these two changes though, at storage and case. There's no reason to NOT get a faster PCIe NVME M.2 SSD when it's larger, faster and cheaper than the SATA Samsung SSD you had selected. And this case, based on the same design as the Define R6 but geared more towards water cooling, is...
Not really seeing any problems. Partpicker is generally pretty good about radiator/case fitment.

As it mentions, you are selecting a motherboard with additional power input. You might consider a PSU with two 4+4 CPU power connectors.

I found it on amazon.de for €648, but I'm not sure how that compares to at what price you can buy it?
The card.

Thanks a lot on the input about the case and storage! Didn't know about this, and neither did the friend that helped me build te pc I don't think.
 
At that price, you are still better off going with the graphics card you had intended to get. It has pretty nearly the same performance as the 2070 or in some cases the 2070 Super, sometimes falling behind, sometimes in the lead, based on reviews. So for two hundred euros cheaper, makes sense.

Alright! Thanks a lot for the help!
