Pc upgrade compatability

[Henry_102]

hello guys are these parts compatable or no. If not could you recommend me a solution. Secondly i am thinking about installing a custom water cooling loop in the future so do i have room and compatabily for that. Also i need someone to recommend a power supply for this build, i wouldn't mind having one slightly overkill incase i upgrade. Thanks everyone her are the parts:

- Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AORUS Xtreme Edition 11GB
- Corsair Graphite 780T Full Tower Gaming Case - Black
- Intel Core i7 7800X
- Gigabyte AORUS X299 Gaming 3 Pro Motherboard
- Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro CMW16GX4M2C3200C16 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4

I am also thinking of getting into streaming. Is this powerful enough?

Thanks, again everyone

Build is good but why the 7800x? The 8700k beats it and is of a newer architecture.

It will be powerful enough, but Ryzen is the better way to go for Streaming and Gaming. What is your budget? Location?

OK, thanks for the reply. I would use a ryzen but i don't think i can use it as it is AMD making it incompatible. I already own the case and the GPU so everything else listed are upgrades i will be doing. My budget will be around 1000 aus dollars to 2000 aus dollars. but i will be adding a custom water cooling loop meaning i will have to put some of that money aside for that.

Of course, when you I said use Ryzen, I also assumed you got that you would have to switch your motherboard. That goes without saying. Apologies for being unclear.

Custom water loop, in my opinion, is a waste of time for now. An AIO for the CPU will do just fine, and the fans on the GPU and case will keep it just cool. However, if you want a custom water loop because it looks cool, that is up to you.

Do you require storage?

NOTE: The Ryzen 7 comes with a pretty good stock cooler, so if you want to use that instead of the AIO, it is perfectly fine.
