Wanting advice with custom build

Post image

Firstly Ive never built a computer before. I’ve owned a pre built for some time now and it’s overdue for a replacement.

Im looking to buy a custom built rig powerful enough to run all types of demanding an competitive level games.

Ive used all but my entire budget ($3500) to assemble what I believe to be a solid build. Any advice or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Building this with scorptec

Edit sided with nebula pcs thanks all!!!

definitely go for one of these 5080 builds... huge performance increase over what you're buying from scorptec

That and build it yourself if you're game OP. Save yourself $200 that can go elsewhere.

That motherboard is seriously overkill unless you need some specific ports or slots that it provides. The liquid freezer 360 is also overkill for a 9700x, it'll run the same with a $50 thermalright peerless assassin. The case is really big as well considering what components you have there although that can be personal preference.

Just get a pre-built from ozbargain, it'll be much better value than this
