Log First build - advice

[LizTheKid]

Hi everyone,
I'm building my first SFF pc in the coming weeks. Putting a parts list together and looking for any advice or pointers, things you'd do different etc before I pull the trigger.

I've put a list together of what I'm looking at, the build centered around the Jonsbo TK-0 case. Primarily used for work tasks but no-doubt I'll be doing some gaming, so mid-tier performance should be sufficient.

What would you do differently? What have I missed.

Thanks for any feedback, it's appreciated.

So a couple things here, you will be GPU bottle necked with this build so save yourself some money and go with a 9600x or wait for the 9600x3d unless you doing some cpu demanding tasks like video editing or rendering in which case I would suggest waiting for the 9700F which will be a far cheaper version of the 9700x with almost unnoticeably less clock speed. Also try get 6000mhz CL28 ram or even CL26 if you can find it or alternately a higher clock with higher latency, use this calculator to find the best combination: https://www.techpowerup.com/dram-latency/

That's some really great feedback. Looking to order everything up next week, so will review the build based on this info. Thank you very much.
