First PC build

[FateBroken]

Is this good enough to run high resolution games? Also, I don't know if this is enough power for my pc. Please put any tips you can think of!

Get an SSD.

Looks good but do you really need 3tb. of storage? Do yourself a favor and get yourself an SSD.

get the software off of microsoftwaresawp or kinguin. 

 

added an nvme drive instead of ssd changed the psu and yeah

downgrade to a much cheaper 1tb (this will last you a while and you can always add more storage) and invest in an ssd. That will definitely be able to play games at high resolution.

^ otherwise its pretty solid. Not sure on that psu quality but I'm sure its fine. ?

Honestly you'd be better off getting a WD Blue drive over a Red one being as Red ones are designed for NAS builds. Unless that's what you're building then I'll exit stage right.
