Hi all,

I'm pretty novice when it comes to PC builds, I don't really stay up to date on what's good or not, please look over my parts let me know what you think and if someone could suggest a cooler for my CPU that would be very much applicative.

I have a case and power supple from my old PC

EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 G+, 80 Plus Gold 1000W, Fully Modular, FDB Fan, 10 Year Warranty, Includes Power ON Self Tester, Power Supply 120-GP-1000-X1

Cooler Master HAF X - High Air Flow Full Tower Computer Case with Windowed Side Panel and USB 3.0 Ports





ASRock Z490 Taichi LGA 1200 Intel Z490 SATA 6Gb/s ATX Intel Motherboard

Patriot Viper Steel 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 4400 (PC4 35200) Intel XMP 2.0 Desktop Memory Model PVS416G440C9K

Intel Core i9-10900K 10-Core 3.7 GHz LGA 1200 125W BX8070110900K Desktop Processor Intel UHD Graphics 630

XPG SX8200 Pro M.2 2280 1TB PCIe NVMe Gen3x4 Internal Solid State Drive SSD


Acer Predator XB273K Gpbmiipprzx 27" UHD (3840 x 2160) IPS NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible Monitor with VESA Certified DisplayHDR 400, Quantum Dot, 144Hz, DCI-P3 , Delta E<1 (Display Port & HDMI Port),Black

This is built around the RTX 3080, I don't have one I was going to run my old card tell its available or what every equivalent comes out next.

again apricate any help/input

Regards

Sorry, should have know that was important, I'm open to a new case

EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 G+, 80 Plus Gold 1000W, Fully Modular, FDB Fan, 10 Year Warranty, Includes Power ON Self Tester, Power Supply 120-GP-1000-X1

Cooler Master HAF X - High Air Flow Full Tower Computer Case with Windowed Side Panel and USB 3.0 Ports
So, you're set with a newer power supply. You'll need one of the better AIO coolers for the CPU and a case that supports one. Comet Lake officially supports 1.35 volts for memory so you may want to drop down from 4400mhz. @ 1.45 volts. You'll see diminished returns beyond 3200 to 3600 mhz. unless you're overclocking beyond XMP so it's not really worth the higher cost.

  • Can't suggest a CPU cooler without knowing the brand and model of the case.
  • What is the brand, exact model and age of the power supply?

Awesome, thanks for help, I'll replace the memory with what you suggested. other then that, no other bottle necks you can see correct?

No. It looks like a monster build. Should be capable of doing most anything you want as far as gaming. If you use any programs that are memory intensive such as video editing etc, you may want to increase to 32GB memory but for gaming and typical daily use 16GB is plenty.
