Need help CPU, GPU and memory

[DairyMilkBar]

Hi, i'm pretty new when it comes to upgrading my pc very new in fact and, i think i've just made a rookie and bad mistake can anyone help me out and tell me if this system will be okay? Or needs to be adjusted before put together.

 

CPU - intel -7-7700k 4.2ghz    (was an upgrade)

GPU - evga geforce gtx1080 ti ftw3   (was an upgrade)

 

Motherboard and RAM - I didn't upgrade these this is what they currently are:

mobo - Asus P8Z68-V/GEN3

RAM - DDR3 Corsair 16GB 1600mhz

 

Mainly looking to game on this pc like ark etc.

 

Any help would be apprecaited thanks.

Your motherboard has the wrong socket. The Asus P8Z68-V/GEN3 has socket 1155 and the i7-7700K has socket 1151. This means you need to swap a socket 1151 (and a Z270) motherboard to get it working. This also means you need to upgrade ram.
