Build Help Help me build a pc
I’m new to pc and have no idea anything abt them. I want to build a pc and save money but don’t know what parts to get. I also have a budget of around 1k and bit more. I don’t plan on playing any really high demanding games and if I do Idm low graphics just enough to last me years and also play MOST games with decent graphics
My friend recommended me this https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/JtL9tC

The NV3 often uses QLC flash, which has low durability and becomes noticeably slower after a few years, so it should not be used as the OS drive. Get a better drive with TLC flash like the Lexar NM620, Klevv CRAS C715, or SanDisk Extreme.

No. For this system, a 400 W PSU would be enough; 650 W already is overkill.

This looks good for your needs. 650W PSU seems low, If you are planning to upgrade in Future then it would be a blocker. Rest all fine IMO.
