Hey everyone! I'm diving into PC building for the first time after years of using prebuilt machines. I'm excited to assemble my own ultimate gaming rig! Here are the parts I've planned to use:
**Core Components:**
- **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D (16-Core, 32-Thread, 4.3GHz base / 5.7GHz boost)
- **CPU Cooler:** ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 AIO (top-mounted)
- **Motherboard:** MSI MAG X870 TOMAHAWK WIFI ATX (AM5, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4)
- **GPU:** ASUS TUF GAMING GeForce RTX 5090 32GB
- **RAM:** Corsair Vengeance 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5-6000 CL30
- **Storage:** Corsair MP700 PRO 2TB PCIe 5.0 NVMe M.2 SSD
- **Power Supply:** NZXT C1500W 80+ Platinum Fully Modular ATX
- **Case:** Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO XL ATX Full Tower
- **Operating System:** Windows 11 Pro OEM 64-bit (DVD Version)
**Cooling and Airflow:**
- **Case Fans:** 6x Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM fans
- **Fan Controller:** ARCTIC Case Fan Hub
**Planned fan setup:** 3 intake on the side, 3 intake from the bottom, 1 exhaust from the rear, and 3 exhaust from the AIO radiator on top—totaling 10 fans for optimal airflow.
Are all these components compatible, and will they fit in the case?
Any feedback would be awesome!

They'll fit together, but honestly, it seems like overkill for just gaming! You could save some cash here without sacrificing performance.
I recommend putting your build into [pcpartpicker.com](http://pcpartpicker.com). It checks compatibility and can help find better prices. Just curious, what's the primary purpose of this build? If it's mainly gaming, the 9950X3D is a bit pricey—you might want to consider a 9800X3D instead, unless you have other high-demand tasks in mind.
Yeah, it’s just for gaming! I already bought the parts, just making sure they'll work well together.
Everything looks fine! Just remember, these parts are costly for a first-time builder. The O11 EVO XL is pretty spacious, so fitting everything should be a breeze—take your time with the build!
Gotcha! Really looking forward to it. Thinking of having it assembled by East Coast Computers to be safe.
Haha, I get it, but I'm all about that max FPS at 4K! Just want everything to be smooth.
