Greetings! I'm planning on building a new pc here soon and was wondering if someone would mind checking over what i plan to buy just to make sure parts will be compatible & that i will have enough power etc etc. I will list below what i currently have in my basket, i'd greatly appreciate some advice

Thanks a lot!

Motherboard -

MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX (Socket AM4) DDR4 ATX Motherboard


Power Supply -

Seasonic S12II 520W '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply

DVD Drive -

Asus 24x DVD±RW DRW-24D5MT SATA ReWriter - Black (OEM)


Processor -

Graphics Card - I will be using one i have already ( Radeon RX 570 8gb DDR5 )

I also plan on buying an operating system elsewhere

I have a new (ish) CPU fan i plan on transferring across also

Will i need a seperate sound card?

Hello and thanks for your reply. I have now swapped out the power supply for the Seasonic S12II 520W '80 plus bronze' and swapped the HDD for a SSD although it does increase the price quite a bit (I also have an external USB hard drive). Regarding the optical drive, yeh i would like some kind of disc reader for DVD/games (I will enquire the USB ones)
Everything else will be compatible with each other without any issues? Thanks again for replies
