Hey there.
Let me preface this by saying I'm brand new to this website (And to PC building as a whole), so if I've posted this in the wrong place please let me know. I'm hoping to get some guidance on what parts I should use for a PC build, please. I've been banging my head up a brick wall for the past couple of days trying to understand what part is compatible with which, and needless to say I've got quite the headache, and I'm no closer to creating a good build. Or any build at all.
I'm currently looking to build a computer that will adequately run Clip Studio Paint and a couple browser tabs at the same time. That's... pretty much it. I do occasionally dabble in 3d modelling in Blender, but this isn't particularly important to me as much as the digital art side of things is; especially as that's going to be the basis of my livelihood. So I'd like art to be the priority.
I have a £600 hard budget. Anything over that I'd have to borrow, but up to £100 extra is definitely possible. Unless it's something I definitely should get though, I'd prefer not to. What with the state of the economy right now, I'm also looking to save money by not getting a GPU. It's not especially important for my build, as far as I can tell, and I can always buy one and upgrade when I've got a better budget to work with.
Thank you for taking the time to read through this post, and thank you in advance for any advice you can give me. By this point, I'll take anything I can get :3
EDIT: Based on the information online, I made a list on a certain website that allows you to Pick PC Parts. I don't understand why it keeps censoring me on that though.
Intel Core i5-12500 3 GHz 6-Core Processor
Gigabyte B660M DS3H AX DDR4 Micro ATX LGA1700 Motherboard
PNY XLR8 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory
Western Digital Blue SN550 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
BitFenix Nova Mesh SE ATX Mid Tower Case
Corsair RMx (2018) 550 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
Is that an okay build? Is there anything I should add, or change, or swap out? This is currently bang-on the budget, so changes may breach into borrowing territory
