The last time i built a computer was probably like 4-5 years ago.  My old Computer is getting a bit slow and I am looking to build a new one.

If you have "some" spare time and know stuff about computers, I'd apprechiate it if you could drop some recommendations on what can be optimised.

Also, its the first time I'm watercooling my system, so I stuck with things I know (or atleast think) are compatible with eachother. 

 

Budget (including currency): about 8500CHF 

Country: Switzerland

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: 

  • Watching Youtube
  • Virtualisation 
  • Gaming

 

Here's the parts list:

Main parts:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X

You didn't list the CPU block or a cooler for the CPU. Did you forget it?

 

Use the EK Configurator.
