I'm building a mostly gaming PC, but it will also be used for some other tasks. I've shared my proposed parts list on PCPartPicker: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DhwxqH. I'm wondering if there's anything specific that might bottleneck the performance or if anything doesn't make sense in terms of my choices. Also, I've got a bit more RAM than typical since I plan on doing graphic design and video editing. I'd really appreciate any insights or advice!

I recommend switching to Ripjaws S5 RAM, as it's optimized for Intel builds. However, if the price difference is significant, it might not be worth it. Also, consider adding some extra intake fans at the bottom for better airflow to your GPU. It'll really help with cooling!
Sweet! I'll check that out. For the fan setup, would you go with intake fans at the bottom and exhaust fans on top? So basically pulling air in from the bottom and pushing it out the top?
