Hopefully I'm putting this post in the correct location
Hello!
For about 15 years I've been building my own PC's and the last one I built was around 3 years ago. I'm hoping with some help, this next build will go smoothly.
My goal is
Gaming/Recording/Streaming focused PC
Safe Overclocking
Maybe a 10th gen CPU? (I was thinking an Intel Core i9-10900X 3.7 GHz 10-Core Processor) not sure if the upgrade to 12 or 14 cores is a big deal.
Would a "Noctua NH-U14S 82.52 CFM CPU Cooler" be powerful enough to cool overclocked to 5ghz?
I read the i9-10900X can overclock to 5ghz and that Noctua is legendary for cpu cooling.
A reliable motherboard to go with it
Stability is very important to me. The less of a headache the better. Potential future expansion is also nice.
This is what I got so far and is in Canadian Prices.
The $980 price tag for the RTX 2080 makes me wonder if it was stripped down for a better price since the other versions are much more.

Any guidance, tips or info is greatly appreciated!
