Hi all!
I've put together a draft system I want to buy shortly. Potentially going to see if any of the parts I select happen to come up in BFCM deals but aside from that, I'm pretty happy with the parts and how they are priced at time of writing.
Wanted to see if any of you guys had any suggestions for better items I could swap out and if there are any issues I may run into?
The main use will be as an HTPC in my living room to stream, browse and use for emulation. Would be nice to have the option to play modern games although I will likely use the system without a discrete GPU for now and pick it up later just to give me time to save a few extra pennies. Worth noting, I do have some additional hard drives I can and probably will add to this system, hence the single M2 drive.
I am not fussy about the motherboard having wifi as this system will be wired by ethernet.
Anyway, enough rambling from me, here's the system, really keen to see what you guys feedback is.
Much appreciated.

Motherboard: Gigabyte B450 I AORUS PRO WIFI Mini ITX AM4 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18 Memory
