Hey everyone! I'm looking to build a gaming PC and need some advice on whether all the parts I've picked are fully compatible. I'm not super knowledgeable about PC components, so I'm actually planning to pay a friend to assemble everything for me. I used AI for recommendations and I'm planning to spend around R$30K (which is about $6-7K USD), so I really want to make sure I don't waste money on parts that won't work together. Here's the list I've got:
- Intel Core i7-14700K Processor (20-Core)
- MSI GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Shadow 3X OC Graphics Card (16GB)
- Corsair Icue H170i Elite Capellix XT Water Cooler (420mm)
- Gigabyte Z790 UD AX Motherboard (WiFi, DDR5)
- Corsair Vengeance Memory (128GB DDR5)
- Corsair Dominator Titanium Memory (64GB DDR5)
- 2TB M.2 NVMe SSD
- 1200W Corsair RM1200x Power Supply
- Corsair 5000D Airflow Case
- Cooler Master Masterfan and Asus TUF Gaming Fans
- Predator 27" Gaming Monitor
- Redragon Gaming Accessories (Keyboard, Mouse, Speakers)
- Windows 11 Home
- Extra large Gaming Mouse Pad
I would really appreciate any insights or advice. Thanks!

You might want to check pcpartpicker.com for compatibility. I've noticed you've selected two different RAM kits, which could be an issue. Also, the Intel 14th gen setup isn't the most recommended right now. Are you sure you need that much RAM?
Thanks for the tip! The reason for two RAM kits is to reach the 196GB limit on my motherboard. I really want to future-proof this build.
