Hello community,
im am building my first gaming PC for 4k gaming.
I need help to know, is this Hardware compatible or need i something else for my pc? This is my first built, so im not so much experienced. I will upgrade my GPU after a half year to the New rtx 2080ti. This Hardware should be compatible for the New GPU.
So, this is my list:
1) Sharkoon M25 Silent PCGH Edition
2) Intel Core i7-8086K Limited Edition CPU Prozessor, 6x 4.00GHz, boxed without cooler
3) Thermalright HR-02 Macho Rev. B CPU cooler
4) Palit GeForce GTX 1050 Ti StormX 4GB GDDR5 Grafikkarte - DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort
5) ASRock Z370 Extreme4 Gaming Mainboard Intel Sockel 1151
6) G.SKILL Aegis Series 16GB DDR4-3000MHz this or the second RAM?
16GB (2x8GB) G.Skill RipJaws V DDR4-3200 CL16-16 DIMM Kit
7) Seasonic Focus Plus Gold - 650W | PC-Netzteil -
8) Crucial MX500 Solid-­State-­Drive 1TB SATA 2,5

Costs 1200€

I have a few questions:
1} i have read in some Forums, that RAM Speed over 3000 MHz cant run in the PC. So which RAM i should take?
2} is my power Adapter enough for this pc and my upgrade GPU rtx 2080ti?

Peace

Your parts are compatible.
But, I have some thoughts:

1. I7-8086K is really a well binned i7-8700K and the extra price premium is not likely to gain you much overclocking headroom.
If you really want the very top gaming processor, I suggest you wait for the 9th gen i7-9700K due in October.

2. The cooler is a very good one, but you will have difficulty clearing ram heat spreaders, particularly those on the ripjaws version.
The low profile aegis will be better. As an alternative, the noctua NH-D15s will clear any ram and cool just as well.

3. I understand the temporary nature of the GTX1050ti. Consider buying the evga version if you think you can upgrade within 90 days.
EVGA has a free 90 day trade up option.
Or... current prices...
What is your location? We can put together a build that will save you some money.

The parts are compatible, but you can save some money with much performance impact, especially for 4k.

I would not suggest getting a 8086k. It is not worth the extra money over a 8700k. At 4k, the bottleneck moves from the CPU to the GPU, so there will be zero fps difference between the 8086 and a 8700k or a 2700x.

Your system can run 3000mhz RAM, you will just have to overclock it. But that is very easy and Intel has a XMP profile that is a one button click to overclock the RAM to 3000mhz or higher.

We don't know what the power requirements are for the 2080ti, but a good 650 watt PSU, such as the one you selected will be fine.

If I were you, I would not go with the 1050ti today. I would look for a really good deal on a 1080ti. In the US you can find them pretty close to $500 and that is a good price for a 4k card. The 1080ti is more than capable of running games at 4k/60hz. Then, this time next year you could look at Nvidia's next offering and see if the RTX starts to take hold. But that is just my opinion.

I have 1200€ but i buy after a few months the New nvidia geforce rtx 2080ti. I buy the 1050ti till i have the New GPU.

Which RAM should i take? The g.skill aegis or ripjaws? Works the ripjaws Ehen i put Them in the PC? Or have i to setup it?

I like the 8086k

Need i something else for a PC?

Or... current prices for GTX1080ti are now reasonable and would do your job for you.

4. The 3000 ram speed is the speed at which a motherboard will boot. All ram will have a default 2133 speed so you can get into the bios and use a xmp setting to set the ram to the advertised speed. Something like 3600 speed would be appropriate.

5. RTX2080ti cards I have seen need two 8 pin power connectors.
You will find that easily on a 750w psu. 650w might be ok, but I would go 750w.
Love the Seasonic focus gold.
A psu will only use the wattage demanded of it, regardless of the max capability.

As for the three brands of RAM, they are all just fine. I would take Geofelt's advice and go with low profile Aegis incase you run into clearance issues with the cooler. Or, as said, the Noctua NH-D15s is widely considered one of the best air coolers on the market.
