I am interested in building a PC (my first time) for 4K gaming - can any computer enthusiasts give me some feedback on this build? Rate it on a scale of 1 - 10 if you don’t feel like typing :P

Expensive

Monitor is too large if you are into fps shooters. Pros aim for 23.5. Power supply is overkill I'd go with 1000 but you prolly only need 800

Hold out till the end of September the 4000 series GPUs are coming
confirmsthings
Switch out for an AMD CPU. GPU is fine, tho, Nvidia cards current gen are bangers.
Kuiper
This, and go with something like a 5800 series cpu. I have a 3950, I bought it for rendering, and compiling. But it's horrible at gaming.
Attritshun
If your going for 4k gaming I'd suggest at least the 3080 ti... especially with prices dropping. Otherwise this looks pretty good

Yay thank you! This is helpful

You should go ddr5 on the memory
Slamtastik
Is it worth it, it seems kinda expensive. Are there any issues?
Squirrelkun
Can this board even use ddr5? Everything I’ve looked up shows 4 only.
UnofficialBMO
8/10. Def recommend sticking with ddr4 untill 5 prices come down, then can upgrade mobo and ram. With that case you will have to front mount
UnofficialBMO
If you want to top mount the rad you might want to consider a slightly larger case

AMD's lowest in the new stack of CPU's leaves the 12900k in the dust for a much cheaper price. Also RTX 4000 series are coming soon. Wait.

It's the 7600x

A few notes - the build looks good and the parts will work with each other. Can confirm PSU is good. Buy used if you want to save cash, but
zollies
but for a first time builder, maybe new with warranties is better. I'd go with DDR4 because DDR5 is unproven and expensive. You can use a

Smaller NVMe SSD for your windows drive, but I wouldn't go lower than 256GB. You can always expand storage later with 4TB SATA SSD drive.

If you want to go a little cheaper you can sacrifice cores and get a lower end CPU like 12700 non K version,no need to overclock, still good
