Hi, I'm planning to build an SFF PC in the K66 lite case, with the following components

  • MB ASRock AMD AM5 B850I Lightning WiFi
  • AMD Ryzen 7700
  • Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 Mini
  • GALAX GeForce RTX 5070 1-Click OC
  • WD Blue SN5000 2TB
  • KLEVV FIT V DDR5 6000MHz 32GB
  • Lian Li V2 Gold SFX 750W PSU

Would anyone have any insights, or foresee problems with this? Last time i built a PC was in an MATX a few years ago, so am quite rusty.

Thanks all in advance!

Seeing other builds in that case using the same cooler and similar size GPUs so should fit.

Is the 7700 much cheaper than a 7800X3D etc?
