if you're looking for part recommendations, Western Digital is fine, but Sabrent Rocket makes a better drive in my opinion.
Ive used the same CPU motherboard and RAM, they all work well.
The GPU is based on your needs and budget ofcourse
The case is a personal choice, just lookup reviews and see if its easy to build in or not.
I would suggest a modular power supply, maybe seasonic if its within the budget.
fans are just fans, just make sure they fit in your case.
The one thing i dont see on there is a CPU cooler, so ill recommend the EK AIO, whichever size fits in your case.

How are you planning to use your laptop as your monitor? I don't know of any laptop that has a HDMI-in port, they only have HDMI out

Mate this is clearly a budget build and your suggests are a modular seasonic, an aio for a cpu that doesn't need it and a sabrent rocket ssd??????

I said if they were in budget, they didnt say anything about their budget.

Anyway unless they're editing ssd speeds don't matter past gen 3 and choice of nvme isn't really important besides maybe dram cache
5600 can be cooled fine with the stock cooler but if you want something a bit better you can get a thermalright 20 dollar one
And seasonic is fine they just are overpriced and aren't even the best psus on the market
Should just look at the psu tierlist
Msi mag is fine for that build though

Dunno what they're doing with it, I just suggested one if they wanted an upgrade option. They didnt state anything about what they wanted help with so I threw a few ideas in. The build is fine aside from missing a cooler (unless it includes an air cooler).
A modular power supply, brand aside, would still be a quality of life improvement that shouldn't have an impact on the price much.

The cheapest modular/semi modular that isn't a bomb is like 70 dollars more

its possible the pricing where you are is different btw

I'm using pcpartpicker? They set their country
small frost
I think the OP is not in the US, I am, so i have no idea of the pricing there

They literally sent an Australian pcpartpicker link
small frost
yeah i know

so you can see Australian prices

ok, well regardless we still dont know the budget. I dont make a habit of shopping for people overseas so forgive me for not going the extra mile. Im just giving them options.
PC Part Picker also isnt the most reliable source for pricing, its pretty often wrong, and I dont know what their shopping options are there. So I just go with what I know.
Yeah its a decent build, just make sure you're getting the most bang for your buck. If you can find a modular PSU in budget thats good, it would make the building experience easier.
Happy building
have a good one
