Is this PC build good??? Need help!!!

FIRST TIME!!! So for this PC I went with the i7 unlocked 10700k, the RTX 3060ti, the MSI MAG CORELIQUID 240R AIO Liquid CPU Cooler, the ASUS ROG Maximus XII Hero Z490, 16gb of ram, 750w power supply, Cooler Master MasterBox TD500 Mesh Airflow ATX Mid-Tower and 1 tb SSD. Is this a good build. ESPECIALLY IS MOTHERBOARD GOOD FOR 400$. 

 

Just plan to play basic games like Fortnite (don't judge) Call of Duty, Valorant, and Minecraft. Also basic Homework and work.

IMO.. that mobo is overkill unless you're trying to do some serious overclocking or it has specific features you wanted. 

 

As for all your other parts its great! I built my boss a very similar build (same cpu, same gpu, same ram, same psu) and hes getting around 200 fps in CoD @ 1080p.

I would say the CPU is overkill. You would be able to get just as good performance from an i5 and save some money in the process. Unless your going to be doing video editing or some other CPU intensive workloads it's not necessary for just gaming.

 

As for MOBO your better off with a B460 one.

Motherboard is way overkill and wouldn't recommend that CPU compared to other options on the market (you also don't really need 8 cores for average gaming and work)

 

Not quite sure what your budget is so just gone around the $1000 mark. Would heavily recommend going for a 3600 for this kind of workload. The 3060ti is out of stock right now but hopefully you shouldn't have to wait to long for stock to start coming back in.  If you can find any R5 5600 stock around the msrp while waiting it is worth picking it up instead of the 3600.
