Hey guys, I need help with identifying any bottlenecks with my build

Here is my list of parts, I just need some help knowing if anything will be bottlenecked by anything else, I am pretty much at my max budget right now, so just making sure I don't have to buy anything else.

Corsair - H100i v2 70.7 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler

Asus - ROG STRIX Z370-E GAMING ATX LGA1151 Motherboard

Looks like a pretty solid build overall. Just keep in mind all builds have bottlenecks otherwise there'd be infinite compute power.

 

 

Want to know which mobo to get?

Spoiler

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

no your CPU wont bottleneck any GPU you put in there for atleast 10 years id say and other than that everything els is current and top end just make sure to enable XMP for the 3200 memory speed and set your m.2 to boot otherwise the last potential is the CPU cooler for your overclock depending on how far you want to push it but its already a 240m aio so... youre near the top there already too

Only bottle neck will be your skill level, lol.

 

This is a seriously solid build, only thing that will bottleneck is the refresh rate of your monitor.
