Is PcPartPicker Reliable???

[RewardPro101]

PC PartPicker says my build is compatible but I'm not sure if it's a reliable source. First time builder..

Please check out the build and tell me if it's all compatible

Yes it's a really good source to use. Everything you have is compatible as well. Just checked GPU case length as well and you should have plenty of room to spare there.

Super reliable. Basically everyone in this community uses it, it is not only organized, but it helps with compatibility (to an extent). Here is a build for around the same price but there is some stuff that's fixed/more reliable.

The 2x2 ram I suggested will run in dual channel mode for better performance.

Have fun building. 😀
