I'm considering a PC build and wanted some feedback on the components I've selected. Here's what I'm looking at:
- Sparkle Intel Arc A750 Titan OC Edition GPU with 8GB GDDR6 memory
- Intel Core i5-11600KF Desktop Processor (6 Cores, up to 4.9 GHz, Unlocked, LGA1200)
- Intel B760 mATX motherboard (LGA 1700, PCIe 4.0, DDR5 with two M.2 slots)
- LIAN LI LANCOOL 207 RGB Gaming Case with pre-installed fans and tempered glass side panel
- G.SKILL RipjawsV Series 32GB RAM (DDR4, 3200MT/s)
- MSI MPG A1000GS Fully Modular ATX Power Supply (1000W, 80+ Gold Certified)
Would this setup work, and what improvements can I make?

It seems like you might run into compatibility issues with your parts. The Intel i5-11600KF is an LGA1200 CPU, but you've chosen a B760 motherboard which uses the LGA1700 socket. Also, the RAM you picked is DDR4 while the motherboard supports DDR5. You might want to look for an Intel 12th generation CPU (LGA1700) and DDR5 RAM to match your motherboard.
Yeah, definitely check out CPUs like the i5-12400 or i7-12700. They should work well with your motherboard, plus you'll need to swap out for DDR5 RAM. Just make sure to match the speed according to the motherboard specs.
