I’m investigating components for constructing a gaming computer, aiming to spend approximately:
NZD $1500 or USD $1000.
Below is a list of components I’ve identified:
Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 with dual fans and 6GB of GDDR6 memory
Intel Core i5-8400, a 6-core processor running up to 4.0 GHz with an LGA 1151 socket and a 65W power draw
16GB of DDR4 RAM (two 8GB sticks) at a speed of 3000MHz
A 120GB solid-state drive (SSD) in a 2.5” format
A 1TB hard disk drive (HDD) with SATA 6 Gb/s and a rotational speed of 7200 RPM, featuring a 64MB cache in a 3.5” enclosure
An EVGA power supply unit with a capacity of 600 watts
Cooler Master Hyper 12 EVO CPU cooler
MSI Gaming Plus Z370 motherboard
Windows 10 Home (64-bit)

Are these components suitable selections, and if so, are they compatible with one another?
Thank you for your assistance.

Thank you for the included feature—looking back, I now believe 16 gigabytes is overkill for my needs and will likely settle with 8 gigabytes.

Currently, 8 gigabytes is generally considered insufficient and may encounter difficulties, particularly when performing multiple tasks simultaneously. Furthermore, your computer allocates a portion of this memory to running essential processes in the background. Consider 8 gigabytes only if you’re on a very limited budget.

Currently, 8 gigabytes is considered quite limited and may encounter difficulties during demanding tasks, particularly when running multiple applications simultaneously. Furthermore, your computer system allocates a portion of this memory for essential background processes. Opting for 8 gigabytes should only be considered if you are significantly constrained by finances.

I generally don’t handle many things at once simultaneously.

When I play on my present computer, I only have Discord and Steam open, for instance, while playing CS:GO – and I possess 8GB of RAM. However, I understand your perspective.

Is the Asus Prime B450M motherboard capable of connecting to Wi-Fi (without wires)?

Should a Wi-Fi card or adapter be connected, it must be compatible. The device lacks built-in Wi-Fi functionality by default.

If you add a Wi-Fi card or adapter, it needs to be compatible. It doesn’t include built-in Wi-Fi functionality by default.
