I want to get some suggestions if this is good for me or not. I also want to get some info about how much fps I would be getting in games.
This is my first time building a PC so please correct me if I have made any mistakes.

 

Use PcPartPicker and post the permalink (url just above the build list) or use the BB button and post a BB formatted list.

 

Unless Unreal Engine development is the primary usage, an AMD processor makes more sense for this build.

 

New CPU coolers include thermal compound. There is usually no need to buy additional compound.

 

Using 4x memory kits can be problematic in DDR5 systems. Consider using a 2x48GB or 2x32GB kit instead.

My honest reaction after seeing “core ultra)

anyway, DO NOT FALL FOR THE INTEL SCAM. THEIR CPUS ARE TRASH. T R A S H. Instead, get the jump on a 9800x3d and a am5 mobo. Otherwise it’s not bad.

decimated. (build not approved)
