Good build but I would go with a air cooler like the dark rock pro 4 or the fuma 2 to save you some money

That needs a bit of fixing. Are you set on that case ? As you need fans as well.

Hey, it looks good. Only thing I want to ask is, why the 3800x instead of the 3700x? The performance is almost the same, and the 3700x when OC'd will match the 3800x.

I'm clueless to be honest so I'm up for what ever works. thanks

With a 1440p monitor. You might want to add a couple of extra fans for the case. The Arctic P12/P14 PWM PST are great for the money.

Worst case scenario is you might need to update the bios on the board, but it has bios flashback anyway. It should be shipping with an up to date bios though by now.

 

The other issues you can ignore. The cooler comes with an AM4 bracket. You don't need to plug in the additional 4 pin. You will lose a couple of sata ports when plugging the M.2 SSD into the top slot but you will still have 4 left. The cooler has no issue with tall ram.
