Hi all, need to put a PC together for a friend, it is for games like COD and Fortnite, etc.

I would prefer to stay with an ITX build and an AIO for the CPU.

Here is the parts list I have so far but I am open to any changes if there are clearance issues or anything!

Looks fine, non of it is amazing, but it will all work together. Only suggestion is get an M.2 drive to save space and cables, and makes it easier to build. Oh and you can get a 1660 Super for not much more.

I'd be fine with that, what equivalent CPU/GPU and ITX Motherboard would you recommend?

Just an example not a final build.


CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3100 3.6 GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master MasterLiquid Lite 120 66.7 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
Motherboard: ASRock Fatal1ty B450 Gaming-ITX/ac Mini ITX AM4 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory
Storage: Crucial P2 500 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
Video Card: Palit GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER 6 GB StormX Video Card
Case: RAIJINTEK Metis Plus Mini ITX Tower Case
Power Supply: Silverstone SFX 450 W 80+ Bronze Certified SFX Power Supply

Total: ~£725

You've got enough budget to get a better CPU, e.g. an R5 3600, or a better cooler, or a bigger SSD. Lots of options really. I am sure there will be more people along with more opinions. :)

Thx, I picked this PSU as it is fully modular so it will look nicer and easier to work within the case, would have preferred it a little cheaper and 400watt but can't have everything right! :D
