I'm building my first gaming PC and I'd love some feedback on my parts list! It's mainly for gaming on a 180 Hz 1440p monitor, aiming for around 120 fps in games like Warzone and Battlefield 6. My budget is roughly $1500, and I've already got the peripherals thanks to a friend's donation. Do you think my build is future-proof, and are there any changes you would suggest? Thanks!

For gaming, it's crucial to know your monitor's specs. Since you have a 180 Hz, 1440p monitor targeting around 120 fps, I’d suggest possibly scaling back to 16GB of RAM to invest in a better CPU. This way, you’ll get more performance for your games!
You’ve got a solid list! Just make sure to keep your monitor's refresh rate and resolution in mind. Apart from gaming, you also mentioned using it for schoolwork, which is great. It's important that your parts support your multitasking needs, too.
Totally agree! The CPU can make a big difference in performance, especially with those fast-paced games.
