Hello, I am very novice when it comes to building and am building my very first gaming PC. I've purchased about 4 parts now and just want to know what the community thinks would be best for the build. I'll let you know all the parts I have and then go in to parts I'm thinking about purchasing, I just want to know if these are good enough parts, and if you have recommendations to stay in the general price range.

Here's the parts I currently have:

Case: Corsair Spec-02 ATX case: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139043&cm_re=corsair_spec_02-_-11-139-043-_-Product

MOBO: MSI B350 Gaming pro m-atx: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813144019&cm_re=msi_b350_gaming_pr-_-13-144-019-_-Product

EVGA 500w Power Supply: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA7HN50K6623&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-PCPartPicker, LLC-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

Optical Drive: Asus DRW 24B1ST: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827135204&ignorebbr=1&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-PCPartPicker, LLC-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

And here are the some of the components I'm looking to possibly purchase:

GPU: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814137018&ignorebbr=1&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-PCPartPicker, LLC-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

CPU: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113445&cm_re=ryzen-_-19-113-445-_-Product


I know I have to purchase more such as HDD, SSD, RAM, etc. I do not plan on overclocking that much, just here and there if I can. I would just like to know what the community thinks about this, and if I'm doing it right. lol.

Thanks for all the help!

Well the reason why I got an optical drive is for the purpose of older games I have on disc already. So just the backwards compatibility of it. And why upgrade the PSU? Every build video I've watched with the same MOBO has had less than 430w on each. I figured 500w was pretty good.

Thanks,

Oh right lol, I apologize I misread that. Understandable, I doubt all do much overclocking really. But overall, is the build correct as far as the compatibility goes? and would the parts I plan to purchase go fine with them?
