Build review required

[Slowloriz]

Hello,

 

Im planning to use a specific deal in one of local shops and they are somewhat limited to available parts. I would like to ask for advice, how my build looks like. Im looking for something, that will last me for multiple years (I currently run 7-8year old PC). I play some games, I also plan to learn new things and will need to run multiple VMs at some point.

 

CPU: i7-10700k

MB: Gigabyte Z490 AORUS PRO AX

RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury Black 32GB 3466 Mhz DDR

SSD: Samsung 970 evo plus 1TB

PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower Grand RGB Sync 750W

Case: Deepcool MATREXX 55 MESH ADD-RGB 4F Black Tempered Glass

GPU: They dont have any GPU atm, I plan on getting RTX 3070 once they are more available (in few month)

 

Does the build look OK?

I also have few additional questions:

• I understand, that MB supports PCIe 4.0 and with CPU upgrade in future I will have PCIe 4.0 support (e.g. getting better ssds etc)
• Does built in cooling from case + intel stock cooler is enough, if I dont plan overclocking (at least for now)
• Is it worth getting i9-10900k or the difference is too small?
• PSU calculator suggested I should get 670 W power. Is 750W enough, in case I do minor upgrades in future, or I should get 850W instead?
• Its worth paying for faster RAM or something like 3000MHz will be good enough?

Maybe there are other suggestions or considerations you guys can provide?

 

Thanks in advance!

the build looks good, i'd get a cooler for the cpu, I wouldn't rely on stock, and i'd maybe add a few more case fans.

3466mhz ram is good, 750w are enough

i9 is worth it if you actually use it for work purposes. for gaming, it won't make any difference.

Yes this build is good according to me.... But please consider getting a cooler for the CPU..... If your budget on that is low, try to buy a better air type cooler instead of a cheap AIO....

Thank you both for suggestions.

 

I can try reuse my existing cooler (looks good, its one of few parts not 8 years old :D) for now, until I buy GPU.

Any specifics on CPU Coolers? Never really tried to understand differences between them...
