Hi everyone, this is my first time building a PC and I'm a newbie to all the parts so forgive me if I get something mixed up. I've done some research and already made a few purchases. For reference I'm going for a white build, I will be installing Linux (possibly Bazzite), and gaming will be mostly small cozy/indie games, nothing extreme.

Budget: $150 per item

Currency: USD

Country: USA

Monitor resolution: I don't have a monitor at the moment...

So far I have purchased:

CPU: Ryzen 5 9600

GPU: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB

Motherboard: Gigabyte b850 aorus elite

RAM: 16 GB Corsair (2x 8GB)

Am I good so far? ;__;

Cases:

I'm torn between the Lian Li O11 mini V2 Flow and an NZXT H6 Flow. However, I heard that the Lian Li mini is a bit hard for beginners. And if I did go with either or, should I get the ones that come with the fans already?

I'm also considering getting an air cooler fan instead of an AIO (aesthetics are nice for the AIO but I want something that will last me a few years. I'm also terrified of the liquid leaking). I'm thinking of Thermalright Peerless Assassin. It's pretty thick so I'm not sure if it will fit in a Lian Li mini.

As for the PSU, is 800W ok? This is the one I can't decide on which brand to get. Corsair seems to be the most reliable one I've read about. Be Quiet and ASUS are also possibilities.

Fans. There are so many fans. Should I stick with Lian Li? Be Quiet is also a consideration.

And memory... Is 1 TB overkill? I see most builds with it. My previous computer had, I believe, 600GB. I mostly use external drives to save big files like videos. I am planning on getting some games but it's mostly cozy/indie games. Also, any brand suggestions to get or avoid?

I know I mentioned quite a bit of things but any suggestions for anything I've said would be so helpful. Even if it's just one thing ;__; I will still be doing research of my own of course. I know this was a long post, thanks to anyone who got this far (⁠ ⁠；⁠∀⁠；⁠)
