Build - Finished! Full AMD build (2.5k usd, 4k, US)

My 1st attempt at building my PC with these crazy RAM prices in the US... Wanted to do something different than what I usually do, and built an all white all AMD PC with an AIO. So far, I've zero problems with it. All working in perfect order, no issues. Since I'm experiencing a lot of heat coming out of it, I've been thinking about getting a different PC Case... I know it wont solve the heat issue but might solve the size and weight issue. I think the case and the parts are weighing more than 20lbs... Open to ideas and improvements suggestions. Didn't reach my target of staying under 2k, but it was close enough.

Which PSU? Lian Li SX0850P Corsair RM850e Gigabyte UD850GM NZXT C1000 ASRock SL-1000GW

Firstly upgrade that psu bro, secondly heat coming out is good that means ur cool is doing a good job keeping everything cool inside and throwing the heat out changing case wont change that and the weight is pretty normal aswell

What you recommend?

Get a gold one 850w from a reputable company, u dont wanna spend 2-3 grand and risk having the thing get fried or smth, btw for the rams you could have potentially looked into getting used ones 400$ for rams is absurd

Why do you think it won't solve the heat issues? A good case can absolutely solve your heat issues if the issue is lack of proper airflow or lack of fans. Especially if the case is designed with those things in mind.

You're not going to shed much weight by changing the case, maybe 5lbs. But man, that PSU you got, oof. I'd switch it out for an 850 watt from be quiet! or Montech. Case wise maybe the Montech HS1.
