This will be my first PC build and I was wondering if there was any obvious problems or changes to make. Any comments would be helpful.

I see no issues.

what resolution and frequency? 1080p is massive overkill, 1440p is very very good, 4k it'll cope (that's the best you can hope for really)

I play 1920x1080 144 Hz, how many frames is overkill?

That might be nicely balanced, your GPU won't be too taxed, but next gen titles will tax it more. You may need to OC the CPU maintain 144, single thread performance will be key, multi thread will give stability.

As of right now I play mostly Counter Strike, League of Legends, PlayerUnknowns Battlegrounds, and Apex Legends

I think most of those a quite light games, so you're overspending, BUT if you know that and are happy with that then that's OK. If you'd have said BFV, Division 2, and other AAA's then that's a different story.

I like those games but on my current setup constant framedrop does not allow me to play them 🙁
