I'm a bit nervous about my first PC build, as I've spent hours researching to make sure I didn't mess anything up. I already have a monitor (not sure if it's the exact one) and a Samsung SSD. I'm planning to order all the parts tomorrow, which is both exciting and terrifying! Here's what I've picked:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 9700X
- **GPU**: Gigabyte AMD Radeon 9070XT Gaming OC 16GB
- **CPU Cooler**: Endorfy Fortis 5 Dual Fan
- **RAM**: Viper Venom 32GB 6000MHz
- **Motherboard**: GIGABYTE B850 AORUS ELITE WIFI7 ICE
- **Case**: be quiet! 501LX Pure Base
- **Power Supply**: Seasonic G12 GM-850 Gold
I plan to play games like The Sims and Minecraft (though The Sims is my main focus). I really hope everything fits and is compatible. Do you think my CPU, RAM, and motherboard combo will work? Any thoughts on my build?

Your build looks solid! PC Part Picker is a fantastic tool for checking compatibility, so I recommend you run it through there. For playing games at 1440p ultrawide, you're in for a great experience! Just double-check that your case comes with fans included for proper cooling. Enjoy the build process!

Can't wait to see how it turns out! I'm watching a ton of tutorials too before I build mine.
