if you use that Motherboard then I would recommend this ram https://pcpartpicker.com/product/wD...-2-x-8gb-ddr4-3600-memory-f4-3600c19d-16gsxkb

and this storage

Samsung has never failed me and a lot of the tech people recommend the Barracuda. might seem like overkill but if you have this for years could be worth it
For your budget you could probably go for something really good GPU wise I'd recommend going to versus.com putting in your GPU and then Scroll down to the performance...

$3k budget - I'd go with a B550 Mobo for sure. With a 250 to 500 GB M2 drive for the OS and a much larger HDD than 1 TB for storage. Sounds like you want a serious gaming PC.

Guys, the OP said:
"2x32GB C18 DDR4" RAM
Ram:Corsair vengeance (2x16gb) DDr3 C18
Edit: I spotted the correction sorry
he said ddr3
btw ddr3 is Very old now you can pay about $80.00 for 16gb 1600mhz on DDR3 but get16gb 3600mhz on DDR4 for the same price

If you wanna look into your system by yourself then I got a lot of use off of versus.com and https://pcpartpicker.com/list/

after you put your parts into the part picker list it will tell you if there are any compatibility issues

Remember you can't skimp on the power supply it should be 80+ gold and the GPU or graphics card should be the most expensive part of your build.

For your budget you could probably go for something really good GPU wise I'd recommend going to versus.com putting in your GPU and then Scroll down to the performance section it will show what percentile your GPU is in then look at others in the same or higher and compare them.

And I think your PSU is overkill not sure but I don't think the components you listed use that much.

you could probably get some help by looking up videos on Linus tech tips YouTube or the gaming nexos maybe JayzTwoCents And just search how to pick a power supply or something similar

I guess too pull it back a bit And actually answer your question the parts you listed do work together

Except for the ram you need DDR4 for your motherboard Edit: I spotted the correction the ram you listed in your correction works and is a good speed

and your CPU works better with faster ram like the stuff I listed earlier.

And I think you need to research the power supply a bit more as 1200 Watts seems a bit excessive the most important is that it's rated 80+ gold or better and from a reputable brand.
Yours is Bronze I wouldn't get it especially since it's overkill it wouldn't be efficient.

And I don't like your storage as I'm not familiar with it this could be batter.

Make sure your case can fit your CPU cooler and video card/gpu
