Hello Kruusikas,

The parts are compatible but don`t make sense tbh.

The CPU has no on die video.

You have too much RAM.

The RAM is not the best speed for the CPU.

The PSU which happens to be the most important component is only intended for PCs that do not have an add on GPU, CV = Corsair Value which is somewhat of a clue as to what Corsair recommend it be used for.

Not all parts on the list are shown to be available.

Question, what do you intend using the PC for.
 
Mostly it is a home pc for watching movies, playing games (Geshin Impact, Lost Ark), and browsing the internet.
What would you then recommend?
Does this build work better
I am new in this so sorry for a trouble.
 
Recommended changes;

The CPU to one that has video.

2 Xs 8GB sticks of RAM that matches the speed of the CPU.

A better brand of PSU, a Gold efficiency rated unit from either Corsair, EVGA or Seasonic would be best, they typically have a 7 or 10 year warranty which are a sign of how good they are.

The i3 12300 is more than good enough for gaming and when building a rig on a budget it offers great value for money even when you compare it to some earlier unlocked i7 CPUs, benchmarks here

The newer i3 CPU can handle a lot faster RAM than the earlier i7 at the link as well.
