I'm looking to build my first custom gaming PC since my current pre-built one is really outdated and struggles to run some games. I have the budget to go for an overkill setup, but I'm unsure if the components I've chosen are the best fit for my goals. I've put together a list of parts, which you can check out here: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/8RRJZc. Are there any suggestions on parts I should swap out or upgrade? Also, do I need to add case fans to my build?

Honestly, it seems pricey. You might want to reconsider your choices to avoid wasting money on parts you won't fully utilize.
If you’re spending a ton on high-end parts like a motherboard, CPU cooler, and case, it could be worth it. Just be careful not to overspend—it might be overkill for what you need!
Yeah, it's definitely better to find a balance between performance and cost. Don't get too caught up in overkill!
