Hello everyone, in the process of building a PC but haven't bought the parts yet. The only game I plan to play so far is Escape From Tarkov. I really just need someone to scan through all my parts and see where a possible bottleneck might come from. I'm also clueless as to bios compatibility with any part go the computer (i'm a first time builder). I'm unsure if a graphics card specifies GDDR6 compatibility if that means I need GDDR6 memory or not. I don't care about the availability or not of a particular part. I will post my parts list here:

I'm personally not seeing any issues, looks like a pretty solid build to me, wish I could afford that haha.

This would be a better option for Intel. Cut out a lot of 'Fluff' from your list.

 

You only need 1 lot of paste, although it is optional as the cooler has it's own.

 

The BeQuiet cooler is a solid choice. The Noctua D15 Chromax is also excellent but there is no price listed as far as I can see. Should be around $90ish though.

 

Far better Motherboard for less money.

 

Cheaper Ram. 

 

Cheaper SSD. The Samsung drives are overpriced.

 

Gigabyte gpu that will sync with the board. Also has a 4 year warranty when registered online.

 

The case is personal pref but the H500 has great airflow, and has 2 x 200mm front fans. You get a fan at the rear as well. 

 

That Asus psu is overpriced. A corsair RMx 650W is more than enough.

 

You should be able to buy W10 for a lot less. No way I would pay that much for a copy. You can also get free virus programs so you can drop the Malwarebytes. Pretty sure you can get a free version of that anyway or something similar.

 

The toolkit isn't really needed. All you should need is a Phillips screwdriver and a pair of snips to cut cable ties. A lot of coolers come with a screwdriver anyway.

 

No need for the anti static mat either. Just build on a non static surface i.e Wooden table.

 

Also no need for extra fans if you go with the H500.

I am not looking to change my build unless there are any particular bottleneck issues you could see happening with what I already have chosen. Is m current build going to have bottleneck issues, or is it good as is. I don't really want suggestions for other builds unless there's an obvious bottleneck that could occur with my current setup.

You don't want to save money ? The Intel build I posted will perform exactly the same as your build for ~$768 less. Don't let me stop you though.

 

There is no bottleneck with a 9900K and 2080 ti at 1440p. Same goes for the Ryzen build.
