Hi guys, so basically i've been gaming normally on laptop for the past few years and now i've decided to get a gaming pc.
Are the case and other components compatible?
is there any issue with this?
will there be any bottleneck
and is this good for a gaming setup, if i need high quality gameplay with high fps on games

Thunder CrushCase With 3 ARGB Fans
16GB DDR4 3200Mhz RAM

We need a LOT more information than that to determine if anything is compatible.

What is the actual model of the motherboard?

What is the EXACT model of the power supply you intend to use?

Do you have a link to the exact case you are looking to use, because there are multiple "Crush" cases from Thunder.

What is the EXACT model and brand of the memory kit you are planning to use AND are you planning to purchase a single kit that comes with both DIMMs in it, or are you planning to purchase two SEPARATE DIMMs that are the same model but do not come together in one kit?

This is pretty close to the spec of a machine I recently built.

Keep in mind that "tray" CPU typically do not come with a cooler.

I would triple check the compatibility on manufacturers website to be sure the BIOS is 3xxx ready. The board that pops up on the model you list seems to be MSI, so check that aspect out. Otherwise, without further details I would say tentatively yes.
