[SOLVED] Compatibility help! first time builder

[Nejmasni]

I'm trying to build my first PC, and I've narrowed it down to this:
�

Component		Selection	Price
CPU		AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 3.8 GHz 12-Core Processor
CPU Cooler		Corsair H100i PRO 75 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
Motherboard		MSI MEG X570 ACE ATX AM4 Motherboard
Memory		G.Skill Trident Z RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory
Storage		Samsung 970 Evo 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
Video Card		NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8 GB Video Card
Case		Phanteks ECLIPSE P350X ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply		Corsair 1000 W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

I know its a little overkill, but i want to be able to use it for years to come, and add it a second GPU.

I want to know if there's compatibility issues with this build..is the case too small? would you recommend something else?

Please help!

Link tells me, permission denied, you should ideally use the BB code option at the top of your pcpartpicker system build list. Denoted by the two B's atop the list(not the page).

PC Part Picker is decent at picking out compatibility issues, although I wouldn't solely depend on it.

Perhaps you love the Samsung, but the 3900X and X570 mobo do support PCIe 4.0, so you may want to check that out. There's been some pretty aggressive pricing on the Sabrent Rocket 1TB over the past little while. (NewEgg had them as low as $149; I had already bought mine for a little under $160 from Amazon.) They do run hotter than the PCIe 3.0 SSDs, but with liquid cooling right next door on the CPU, I wouldn't think it would be a big issue.

Note that Ryzen 9's ideal RAM speed is 3600, although the performance difference from 3200 isn't huge (and you can overclock the RAM too).

That should run fine. Do you have a MicroCenter near you? They tend to have the best cpu pricing and additional $30 off when you purchase a motherboard.

Do you really need the 3900x? The 3800x is very close when gaming. Could save a bit there.

The NVMe 4.0 drives are really fast but are they worth it right now? Probably not for most users and definitely not if just gaming.
