[zyoNoob]

Budget (including currency): 70000 INR

Country: India

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: All kind of gaming at 1080/1440p

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):

i5 11600K

Asus TUF Gaming Z590 Plus WiFi Motherboard 

Hyperx Fury 3200Mhz CL16 8GBx2

Deepcool Gammaxx 400 V2 CPU cooler

Cooler Master MWE 650 Bronze V2 230V PSU

Asus TUF Gaming GT301 ATX Case

Storage : I have a 500GB WD Blue SATA SSD along with me from my laptop. Will upgrade to a gen4 ssd in future.

 

I am waiting for GPU prices to go down to normal so that I can get a 3070 at a nominal price. For the meantime I am gonna be using the new 750 Intel Integrated GPU of 11th gen CPU.

Please provide any opinion on the part choice.
Thank you. :)

 The intel 11th gen cpu generation is famous for their heating issues. I would recommend changing the cooler. Also you can go AMD to save some cost to save up for the 3070. Also the 3070's price in India is not going to come down any time soon, It costs around 1 lakh now and it's going up too.  Amd's APU are better than Intel's iGPU's , if you're going to be on integrated graphics for a while, I would recommend going AMD.

The Gammaxx 400 V2 should be able to handle that 11600K pretty well in most cases. Just as a quick comparison, we can use the TDP metric (not the best method by far, but should suffice for a quick comparison) to take a glance at what we are looking at: 95W of PL1 TDP for the 11600K vs the 180W of the Gammaxx 400 V2. At 100% load, the 11600K can hit 180W of power draw at the PL2 level (from some benchmarks I have seen). If zyo is planning to run this system at that level, maybe something like an AS500 is more up to task.

If the SSD is BKey only and the motherboard is M key only the drive won’t fit.  That should be looked at. Can’t confirm or deny motherboard quality but there should be reviews out on it 

 

650w isn’t really enough fora 3070 I suspect. Might go though.  Kinda pushing it.

Ty for the insight, I am not going to be running at full loads, system is gonna be mostly for streaming and gaming. No synthetic loads per-say. I will look into getting an AIO further down the line tho.

As for the ssd I already did check the key for ssd and it does indeed support m.2 sata ssds for m.2 slot number 2,3 (Key M supports Key B+M ssds, i have 2 ssd of this key type). I do have another question tho that if i further down the line get a gen3.0 nvme ssd, will it be supported by the pcie4.0 m.2 slot in the motherboard. 
Also i checked the power recommended for i5-11600k and 3070 and websites were recommneding 600W PSU, i went 650W just to be safe. I got an old gtx 1060 from my friend for free, so 3070 is gonna be a while, if i even get it, i might just wait till RTX40 series to upgrade.

Thankyou for the answer. And do reply if you find something else that i might have pointed out wrongly.

It will.  Pcie is backward compatible.  Often though using a 3.0pcie may force the entire section of the system to pcie 3 so if you have a Pcie4 something it may also run at pcie3 too. Those m&b drives may also run at sata speeds which is slower than pcie3 nvme.  They may also qualify as pcie3 drives as far as the motherboard is concerned.  Might not matter. There is very little  out at the moment that will be bottlenecked by pcie 3 over Pcie4. A few high end SSDs and some lower end but newer AMD GPUs because they don’t actually have functional x16 connectors.  I doubt a motherboard with m&b key slots on it will be a Pcie4 motherboard anyway though. I don’t know if it’s not possible or not, but m&b is an older thing.  B key is older than m key.
