First time builder, need help

[Probiotic monkey]

I've been looking for a PC for a while and I made a PCPartPicker list, according to the website, the parts I have are compatible, however I asked my friend to confirm and they said the motherboard isn't compatible is this true or no? If so what could I use for the same price point that preferably doesn't require a bios update.

it is compatible

 

But instead of getting a boot m.2 drive and a sata ssd I'd get 1 2tb 970 evo plus 

Apart from that it looks good

Purpose of the system? Purchase region? Actual budget?

Yeah, you can do better. I'm not sure about your game designer of choice though but most of them benefit heavily from CUDA especially UE editor.

You can upgrade to 4070Ti but thats up to you on whether the extra 200$ in cost is worth it.

 

If it isnt a GPU heavy editor then i would absolutely go for 7900XT and not look back. Its basically the same performance as 4070Ti but with far more VRAM and in price where 4070Ti shouldve been.
