Greetings all! I'll skip beating around the bush and get straight to the point. I've just finished making a budget gaming PC for one of my friends on PCPartPicker and the website told me that everything is compatible. Keep in mind that I excluded some parts like the power supply because we already scavenged one :). All I would need from some generous members would be confirmation that all of the parts are compatible and will work with eachother without conflict.

Here are the links to all of our items. (4/5 go to Newegg & 1 goes to eBay)

*All prices are in CAD*

PCPartPicker list: System Builder - Ryzen 3 1200 3.1GHz Quad-Core, GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB OC Edition, Enthoo Evolv ATX Glass ATX Mid Tower - PCPartPicker Canada

Case: Phanteks Enthoo Evolv Grey Mid-Tower Case: Phanteks Evolv PH-ES515E_AG Anthracite Gray Aluminum / Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - Newegg.ca
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB 2x8GB 3000MHz : https://www.amazon.ca/Corsair-Venge...-1&keywords=Corsair+-+Vengeance+LPX+16GB&th=1
Graphics Card: Zotac GTX 1050 TI 4GB: ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1050 Ti DirectX 12 ZT-P10510B-10L 4GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready Video Card - Newegg.ca
Processor: Ryzen 3 1200 3.1GHz: AMD RYZEN 3 1200 4-Core 3.1 GHz (3.4 GHz Turbo) Socket AM4 65W YD1200BBAEBOX Desktop Processor - Newegg.ca
Motherboard: MSI B350M Gaming PRO: MSI B350M Gaming PRO AM4 AMD B350 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard - Newegg.ca

Let me know what y'all think. I'm open to any and all suggestions. Thank you for your time! :)

P.S: Not quite sure if this is the exact categorie this thread should be in. So if it's not, kindly let me or someone else who can move threads know! :giggle:

If you don't plan to OC, slim down that mobo to A320 ASRock would suffice and save you some bucks.

Otherwise all of your components are compatible, and also I'd say this is a solid balance build (kinda iffy about RAM though bc for a low profile system you don't need 16GB, but still, I don't know which kind of workload will be done on this machine so all depends on you)

You say you got a PSU but it would be good to know what it is to be sure it is capable of supporting those components. A common mistake is to use a budget supply on new builds. It is like buying a new Porsche then filling it up at the corner Tobacco and Bait shop. :( A car engine can miss a beat and keep on running. High speed digital electronics cannot.

Don't see a Windows license. It is important to understand that OEM licenses (which most are) are not legally transferable to new computers under any circumstances.
