As my build date is late november - I've made a lot of changes to what I thought my build would be...

I have the SSD's / HD.

My question is as this is probably my first mini ITX build, will the below parts fit properly?

Noctua fans in front - 60% RPM(not visible). Include 3 fans back/top at 35% RPM (Want to keep sound down) - I don't mind buying fans that fit the build color scheme to replace the noctua ones. Really want a silent rig that looks clean. Included fans could go in front - keep one as spare.


Red/Black Build

Gigabyte GA-AB350N-Gaming WIFI (rev. 1.0) VS ASRock AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac


OC CPU to 3.7 ghz - stock cooler. What board should I buy? (Gigabyte has build in wifi)


Wish RAM prices were lower to match my Red/Black theme.

Overall - Will this fit? Would a 1600 be better in this setup? Any changes to improve but not change cost?

Purchasing a 27' 144hz monitor for 1440p gaming at a later date. Early january.

Welp, Release is here....

So, with that being said...considering the price point is identical..Is this a much better build?
