I should have wrote before buying but I can return back within 14 days did I make good choice going for i5 13600k with ddr5 32gb ram I want to run on 1440p ultra wide 144hz
This is my monitor currently I have AOC CU34G2X/BK 34.0" 3440 x 1440 144 Hz Curved Monitor currently I have got no gpu yet as I won giveaway for Rtx 4060ti 8gb I know it won’t be enough but for now it will do with minimal settings

Congrats on the giveaway!

the only glaring parts that i see are the overpriced corsair AIO and the CL40 slow speed rams.

I would suggest 6000/6400mhz CL30/32 kit.

there are cheaper ARGB non corsair cooler and rams.

Its not strictly necessary to have everything corsair, although it makes managing the RGB much more simpler.

I dont know if the PSU is also a done deal, £140 for a 850W is not really a great deal. You can get 1000W tier A psu for that price.

Same goes for the mobo. A MSI tomahawk is cheaper for similar feature set. the purchase price you have mentioned does not match up with the market price.

which AIO would you recommend or any other airflow
 
Everything is good.
Congratulations on winning that giveaway!
Unfortunately I would sell it, save a bit of money and buy a RX 7800 XT that is going to dominate in every game at 1440p.
The rest of the system is good.
i will keep this rtx 4060ti for a bit until i save up a bit i was looking more into rtx 4080 but as i see is overpriced i could buy it but not sure the performance how it will be better rx 7800xt or rtx 4080 at 1440p ultrawide never had rx gpu before 😀

As you can see, for double the less price, you get very similar performance, and this is at 4K, you will get more FPS out of both cards at 1440p. Only reason I would choose a 4080 over a 7800 XT is if you are really into RayTracing, if not, the 7800 XT is the clear winner for me.
