First PC build need help double checking what I am buying

[LuMa03]

This will be the first PC I am building and I don't feel like returning stuff and buying again because they are incompatible so I am asking you people with more experience for help.

 

This is the link for the shopping list (It is a swedish site but the name of the components are the same so it shouldn't matter): https://www.komplett.se/wishlist/shared/fada69a0-b1ba-41cd-b734-4203069604e2

 

I will be buying a GTX 1080 Ti used to use in it.

I will also transfer 1 2.5" 500GB SSD (might buy an extta one later) 2 3.5" 2TB HDDs and 1 3.5" 4TB HDD (might buy an extra HDD)

 

I will be Gaming on a 2560x1440 144Hz monitor

I want to be able to overclock it a bit

Just ask if I missed any info

 

All help is appreciated.

- If you're not super certain on overclocking but would still like to at some point- get a B450 Tomahawk instead. It's significantly cheaper and the VRMs on that thing are awesome

 

- I personally wouldn't buy an AIO, just cause they tend to cause problems down the line. A big air cooler like the Dark Rock Pro 4 works wonders. Had a few bad experiences with them in the past, just never managed to go back

 

- Not too sure what pricing is like over there, but a 550w or 650w RMx unit will do just as fine. I'd swap it if the prices are fairly different 

 

- Case doesn't have super great airflow, but it's not horrible. If you wanted better I would get a Meshify C or another similar case with front mesh 

 

 

Here's a list I would get that's about the same, just saving money here and there with a few adjustments:

I am very sure i am going to overclock (sorry if i seemed unsure)

 

I am currently using an AIO with no problems and it makes the build much nicer (i am going to have it next to me with the glass panel facing me)

 

I also picked out some RGB stuff and dont know if it will all work together or if i need to buy something more to controll it

 

I need a case that supports 3 3.5" drives (preferably something that supports 4 3.5" drives) and 2 2.5" drives. Do you know of any cases that fit that description.

 

Do i need 3600MHz ram or would i be fine with 3200MHz without a performance hit?

 

The pc part list you picked out is the same price as mine if i dont count the RGB stuff (some of my components are on sale but it only shows up att checkout)

Sure then, grab that elite board or that TUF board. They're both decent

Yeah you should be fine in that respect. You had that RGB controller, which will be plenty

Take a look at the Define R6

Even 3000 will be enough. Ryzen likes fast ram, but after about 2933 the scale of speed:performance kind of deteriorates 

 

Overall though your build wasn't bad, those were just changes I'd personally make. One other thing I might do is find where you can save some extra money and up the processor to a 3900x. Not required, but it'll definitely help with the resolution and refresh rate youre going to use 

[LuMa03]

From what i could tell after looking at a few youtube videos the difference between 3700x and 3900x are at max 4-5 fps and for 50% more it is not really worth it.

 

The case i picked out i really like look of it. Is the airflow really that bad in that case because to me the other case you recommended seemed to have worse airflow
