Im building a pc from scratch and i want to know if this list of components makes sence or if im making some mistakes. (im not buying from those places I just made the list there for convenience) also im aware I didn't add a hard drive I will buy that next month since my budget doesn't allow for it right now. Any tips or advice is welcome, thanks in advanced

What will this pc be used for?
 


Mostly for gaming, maybe some editing here and there but the main thing is playing games. I already have a 144Hz monitor but I may end up upgrading to 4k down the line if I get a good deal

 


That settup looks good.
I would replace the motherboard if you want to overclock and get some extra free performance 😉
This is a good one.

You would replace the motherboard with a worse one, because you want to overclock, something the Strix does better. I don't understand?
 
I would add a hdd to the build for storage if you left over money or spend a little less on your gpu and use that money to buy a hard drive, that's the only thing that I would add/Change
