Hello everyone
 

I'm going to set up a new computer, mainly for games, I have a basic idea of what I want and the pieces, but I would like you to advise me to see if it would be well mounted or download components for something cheaper, the idea would be to play in 1080p / 1440p, 3 monitors 120hz minimum, in a basic principle I do not plan to do OC, in the future maybe.

Processor: intel 8700k
Motherboard: asus-rog-maximus-x-code
Graphics card: asus strix 1080ti OC (5 years warranty)
Ram: Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR4 3000 PC4-24000 32GB 4x8GB CL15
Psu: Corsair HX750 750W 80 Plus Platinum Modular
RL: Corsair Hydro Series H150i Pro
Nvme: Samsung 960 EVO NVMe M.2 SSD PCI-e 1TB
Tower: Corsair 500D

My questions would be:

Motherboard: that model, how is it? I like it because in my current pc I have an asus mark1 and that this all covered gives an elegant touch, but I do not know if the extra cost will serve me. the other options would be: Asus ROG Maximus X Hero (which by what I see is the same as the code, but without bluethoh, wifi and some usb less) or the other option: Asus Z370-F Gaming

HDD:
a nvme is very noticeable in games? the other option would be a Samsung 860 EVO Basic SSD 1TB SATA3


the assembly would be with the RL on the front of 3/6 fans, top 2 fans 14 cm and back 12 cm, in that box would have good temperatures? I worry about summer mainly


The idea of riding the PC is that it lasts 3-4-5 years minimum in games, the good thing is that the graphic has a long warranty so if it dies due to natural causes, they give me back the money (I already have a 980ti)

thank you very much to all

The Motherboard is really only worth it if you want those extra, wifi/Bluetooth features, and you want the board to have a certain ascetic look to it. If you don't want the features and are fine with how another board looks go with the cheaper option. NVME is not a big difference in gaming might as well go with the 960 Evo. With cooling it looks fine, I'm just wondering what's cooling your CPU? I also suggest getting a Warranty with your PSU. I once had my PSU fry my CPU and motherboard and both were replaced under my PSU warranty.

the motherboard would be more for aesthetics than the truth, but pay 150 euros more for aesthetics nose, the ram you see better 16 or 32 and I forget problems? and nvme if in games you do not notice it I'll download it to ssd then

the processor will refrigerate the corsair h150i pro

The truth is that I have nothing created of PCPP
what would you change?

If you live in the US

(and a dozen or so other countries), use PCPP. It compares a bunch of good stores in the country and gets the lowest prices for you.

 

Motherboard, RAM, PSU, cooler, storage, maybe case.

Yeah again, the motherboard is going to be a personal choice. For me, I would go with the Asus Z370-F Gaming since its still an amazing board with tons of features and fits in well with the RBG theme I feel going on. As for RAM, 16GB is plenty for gaming, and you won't see much of a difference except in applications that like tons of RAM. Maybe in the far future, we will get to the point of 32GB of RAM, but considering a lot of gamers still use 8GB of RAM, you really don't more than 16GB of it. Again with the NVME, it won't make a difference in gaming, it's really only useful f you plan to move large amounts of data on and off your computer to something like a NAS. Also, I created a PcPartPicker link to the parts you listed. I just didn't include case fans.

thank you very much, the ram will download it to 16GB, 32 I think it's a lot since not even in 4k it is used, I can always in the future put more, what worries me most is whether to leave the nvme or the ssd, it will only be used for games and rarely photoshop or things of the style, I do not know if in a future with the RV they ask for a lot of reading etc.

by the way I ask you: this computer facing the future as you see? how many years do you think it can last in 1440p or 1080, thanks

Here's an idea on the 850 Evo speeds.

Sequential Read 540 MB/s

Sequential Write 520 MB/s

Random Read 94K IOPS

Random Write 88K IOPS

Heres the 960 Evo speeds.

Sequential Read 3478 MB/s

Sequential Write 1987 MB/s

Unless you're going to be constantly transferring data in amounts of like 300+GB I don't really see a need for these insane speeds. Most peoples internet connection won't even download fast enough to keep up with the 850 Evo.

 

As for your PC life length, typically it's around 3-4 years before your going to want a GPU upgrade, though I'm sure the 1080 Ti could push 5 years just fine. The CPU around 4-5 years. Again this will also depend on what kind of changes happen to CPUs and GPUs. If for some reason we saw huge leaps in technology this time could be cut shorter, if technology ends up slowing down in innovation as we get smaller and smaller transistors your PC may last even longer.
