Will this be good for my needs?

[Stooormyboi]

Budget (including currency): I don't really have a budget.

Country: Norway.

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: I will be playing a lot of games and I will be having tons of games on my SSD's.

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): I am going to play all my games in 4K with Max Graphics on a 165 Hz Samsung Odyssey Ark 4K UHD 55".

hi for gaming you do not need 64 gigs of ram 32 will do you fine. also is there any reason that you have 3 ssds. would it not be cheaper to get 1  with a bigger capasity???

[FrowningHippo]

I am not sure about your needs. Since you don't have a set budget and this build seems capable of gaming in 4K. Or at least, currently in terms of graphical power you cannot get anything better. So yes I guess? Like what's the advice you want here?

Since I am already going for an expensive build like this, I just thought; Why not just throw in 64GB also. The more the better right?

I just want to know if the components I have picked out are good with eachother, like is the PSU enough for the whole PC and my accessories? And if the 13900K CPU will be good or if I need to get the latest AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D et cetera.

If "the more the better" means 4 RAM sticks over 2, then that is not better. More RAM sticks will cause more load on the IMC, which can cause higher temperatures, lower OC capabilies, etc. There's a reason serious OC motherboards only have 2 RAM slots. Also, 4 RAM sticks over 2, means 2 more potential failure points  

So yeah, if you're not maxing out RAM capacity, a 2 stick kit will arguably be better than a 4 stick kit.

for 4k you would get similer performance from a new ryzen 7 or core i7. maybe even a i5.

Sorry but I am not pairing my ROG Strix 4090 with anything below the I9 13th gen or 7950X3D.

It's 2 '32GB' sticks!

An i5 with that type of Graphics Card?

im not saying get a i5 im just saying that at 4k so much more of the load is put on the gpu that your cpu choice does not matter as much.

What about large CPU intensive games?

I mean, this is definitely a high end build. Best GPU out there and a crazy cpu to top off. If you want to save, I'd suggest going lower end Ryzen, like a Ryzen 5 5600, getting yourself a 30 series card or a 6700 XT. I don't know how much storage you need but 6tb seems to be overkill. I've been running a ton of games on 2 tbs for awhile now. I'd suggest focusing on cooling for your CPU as well, since you don't have one on there. Get something that can keep that i9 cool, which is tuff. 

 

I missed the CPU cooler on there. that should be good!

like what. stuff like valorent or csgo you can easily max out a 240hz monitor. with a ryzen 5 7600

RDR2 does want a good CPU, no doubt. I have a much cleaner experience playing RDR2 after I upgraded from 8700K to 10700K, especially in the 0.1% and 1.0% lows.
