That Fifine microphone and interface aren't compatible, it's a USB-only mic with an XLR interface. If you want the interface for easy access to the volume sliders then you need a Fifine AM8 or K688 if you want to stick to the same brand. Otherwise get rid of the interface and just keep the USB mic.

Gutted PC
IMO there's no need for a low-profile cooler like the AXP90-X53. A Thermalright Assassin X 90 SE is cheaper and will fit inside that casing .An AMD Wraith Prism (the one with the heatpipes) is another option, but only if you can get one for cheap. Don't get a WD Green SSD as a boot drive. Those are

Is this legit?
People don't understand that read/write speeds mean nothing. So they will say it's slow just because it doesn't reach the 7000+ Read/Write. When in reality it all comes down to access times and application/gaming traces. Here's a transcript from Tom's Hardware review on the SN5000: "The WD Blue SN50

Moving Resources Into External Drive to Save Storage (Mac Case)
you can just install MacOS on your external SSD and use it as the startup drive and install wuthering waves there. That's what I did and I'm casually playing like I did not have the same problem before with a 256GB HDD. Just make sure your SSD is equally fast as your internal SSD or there will be pr

[Warning] Nimo AI 2L Mini PC (AMD 395) - Structural Design Flaw Shears Motherboard Capacitor
I'll have a different experience with my Nimo 2L. SSD is WD Blue SN5000 as well, but WITHOUT any heatsink at all, so it was not damaged during the shipping :-) I've installed Arctic M2 Pro heatsink, so now everything is fine. And do not try to install any heatsink without a lock or screw fixator, WD

Shopkeeper says i5 14400 f is best than i5 13600k for editing
I agree with your P3 Plus is bad thing but rn he is getting an unknown 1TB ssd which is most probably worse than p3 plus Also I mentioned ob as it recently came in and for 8500 its worth imo with 3.5yr warranty remaining ofc if there is a better ssd i would have recommended that like SN5000 , SN770

Need Help Building a PC!
I suggest following u/Cer_Visia's build but swap the SSD for the Western Digital WD Blue SN5000 2 TB instead since it's cheaper than the Inland Performance Plus 2 TB as of time of writing this comment.
