New guy to the site! Is this build compatible?

Would the parts I selected be compatible with each other?
Also open to any suggestions you guys may have for me!
I appreciate any help anyone may provide!

Your processor is not compatible. Switch it out for a i9-9900K that fits a Z390 LGA1151 socket.

Thank you for the catch! If I were to switch out the mobo what would you recommend that is compatible? First time building I been saving for a year and gained extreme interest into trying to build one for the first time after watching many videos on builds. So my knowledge is quite limited on this.

Use pcpartpicker.com and it will tell you about most incompatibilities like this one. It will even tell you about some more nuanced compatibility issues like older chipsets needing bio updates to support a newer cpu.

Honestly the i9 9900k is a better deal. What are you planning on using this pc for? Unless it's something that really needs a ton of pcie lanes or quad channel memory it doesn't make sense to go for that i9 over a 9900k.

Doesn't show 9900x though I believe it's too new.
Gaming and graphic design mostly.
Possibly dibble in streaming when I have time.

get the 9900k if you wanna splurge

I think I will be using the 9900k thanks for all the recs to everyone, just out of curiosity what would be the next step up after the 9900k

Replace the 9900x on pcpartpicker with the 7900x. They are both compatible with the exact same motherboards. Also if you can find the i9-7900x for cheaper, it is a better buy as the 9900x is basically the exact same processor, just with 100mhz higher boost clock.

Appreciate that. Thank you for the tip.
So just cpu seems to be the thing I should do a little more research into.

Basically Intel's 9th generation CPUs are all a slight bump over their last generation CPUs, especially in the HEDT lineup which includes the i9 9900X/9920X/9940X/9960X/9980XE. All of them compared to the i9 7900X/7920X/7940X/7960X/7980XE have slight bumps in clock speed and thats about it. Not worth it to get those.

 

The i9 9900k is still under their more mainstream lineup of cpus, which also includes the i3 9350k, i5 9400, i5 9600k, i7 9700k.

BTW, what software do you use for your graphic design?

Don't account my avatar for this lol just something i've used since I was 14. I have good knowledge with Photoshop and am an intermediate user with illustrator.

I do have a little wiggle room to splurge so even minor improvements I am ok with spending a little extra.

Looks like an excellent build and will be perfect for your workload. The 9900k is a beast of a cpu and has a much stronger single threaded performance than the 9900x which is honestly more important for your workloads.
