I'd say so, especially if you reduce costs elsewhere, you'd not be spending any more money after all with some shuffling.
I've built many rigs over the years, an M-ATX case like that isn't any more difficult to build into than a larger one to be honest. The only thing that makes things a bit more difficult would be if you've a non-modular PSU, or a PSU with exceedingly long cables. The Lian LI PSU you selected is actually designed for use in the sort of case I linked, that's why it has the funny looking shelf type thing for the connectors.
If you'd prefer a larger case and like the look, there are some well priced ones out there with similar aesthetics.
Revised build with a larger case:
My basket at OcUK:
- 1 x Gigabyte B850 EAGLE WIFI6E (Socket AM5) DDR5 ATX Motherboard (SKU: MOT-GIG-03859) = £149.99
- 1 x Aerocool P500C Mid Tower Case - Black (SKU: CAS-AER-03692) = £54.95
- 1 x AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D Six Core 4.70GHz (Socket AM5) Processor - Retail (SKU: PRO-AMD-04829) = £279.99
- 1 x TeamGroup Vulcan EXPO 32GB (2X16GB) DDR5 PC5-48000C38 6000MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black (FLABD532G6000HC38ADC01) (SKU: MY-0B2-TG) = £79.99
- 1 x Lian Li Edge Gold 850W Black Power Supply (SKU: POW-LIA-03764) = £95.99
- 1 x Crucial T500 2TB NVMe PCIe Gen4 M.2 Solid State Drive (SKU: STO-CRU-01090) = £131.99
- 1 x Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB Black CPU Cooler - 120mm (SKU: COO-TLR-02724) = £29.99
- 1 x Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming 16GB GDDR6 PCI-Express Graphics Card (SKU: GRA-SPR-03983) = £599.99
Total: £1,434.86 (includes delivery: £11.98)
Still cheaper than your initial post and includes the X3D.
Thanks for help btw, should I just go 7800x3d? How does build below look, any problems?
