Build Advice Are there any compatibility issues I'm missing with this build ?

The cpu/motherboard and ram combo is essentially what they mean. That cpu for example is 5-6 year old technology so you really want to be looking at AMD socket am5 and ddr 5 parts, or Intel processors that are 12th generation or higher and compatible boards preferably with ddr5 there as well.
