I'm really excited to share my first PC build! Here's the link to my parts list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tzCyDj. I received some feedback from someone earlier (minus the monitor) and I'd love to get more opinions on it. Since I've never built a PC before, I plan to do a lot of research, but I'm uncertain where to begin. Are there any parts you would recommend swapping out, and what general advice do you have for a complete newbie like me? Thanks a lot for your help! 🙂

Your CPU and GPU selection looks solid! Just a heads up, there are cheaper options for the graphics card from other brands, as the main differences are usually in cooling and design. You might also find more budget-friendly RAM than the Corsair 32 GB kit you picked out, especially given current market trends. If you’re willing to consider different cases or motherboards, cheaper options can still deliver great performance. Just keep an eye on compatibility! Overall, looks good to me!
If you’ve carefully chosen these parts and checked compatibility, you’re on the right track! Remember, it’s all about what you like and want in a PC. Try to pick parts that make you happy—there’s no need to let others’ opinions sway you too much. If it fits your needs, go for it!
I really want it to be my own creation! But ultimately, it’s a tool for me. I’m aiming to game in 4K, so any advice on parts is appreciated!
Budget isn't too much of a concern, but I'd like to save where I can. I'm definitely looking for alternatives, especially if I get some solid recommendations. I’m just a little unsure about compatibility. Thanks for confirming that this build is solid!
