I am trying to build a new custom pc build and was wondering if this is a good build or if there are any parts that are overkill or not needed.

Get something better than a Hyper 212, especially if you plan on overclocking.

Mate, please use pcpartpicker.com to make it easier for everyone.

And while you're at it, 5800X for gaming (especially now), is a waste of money. Hyper 212 is not a good value cooler anymore.

Occassionaly visits the forum when I have nothing to do at work.
