Hello Jsp,

I‘m going to build up a new computer, want the (ˋStandard of Today‘)... already done the biggest Job by picking up every needed part to my list, wich i guess that every part should be compatible and work.
Maybe you can help me out, and tell me if this build will work or not. If so, for how many years will i have fun with atleast?
What parts you would be changing and to what?

Is it even worth, putting that money on a high computer?

If you need to know what i wanna use it for, or what are the biggest programs that will need the most power:

- Fruity Loops Studio 20 for Music producing
- Playing actual games
- 2K/4K Video editing and Photos


Ok, going to start with the build now...

Power

Crossair HX1200i

Mainboard

Asus Rog Maximus X Gaming Mainboard with an 1511 v2 for the Coffee Lake Family

CPU

Intel i7 8700k Coffee Lake

CPU cooling

Noctua NH-D 15 (i took a big one, for the better temperatures... maybe watercooling better for that kind of build here?)

Graphics

MSI NVIDIA GTX 1080 Gaming X 8GB PCie

For the good vibes

Creative Soundblaster Z PCie

DDR4 (correct me if i‘am wrong... the Higher the Capacity ––> the faster my PC is working/running?)

2x G-Skill Ripjaws each one has 8GB 3200mhz CL16

Network Card

Asus AC3100 for great W-Lan connection

Flashdrive/SSD

Samsung 960 Pro 512GB M.2

Disk-Reading/Writing

Asus BD RW BW-16D1H-U Pro


Im not a pro, this is why i‘am asking...

Best Regards

Hard to tell. It's different from person to person. One will be fine with low settings in games and one requires maximum settings for "fun".

Power supply: This is way to overkill your system will be requiring like 500W at max peak.
Tune it down to a 650-750W (gold or platinum depends on your e-peen).

Motherboard: Quite an expensive board, for the extreme overclocker and for the aesthetics (You are going to slap an huge ugly cooler on top for it anyways)

The amount doesn't necessary translate into a faster experience, like a better CPU would.
You will be able to do more multiple things at a time. 16GB seems like the sweet point these days.

Network Card

Asus AC3100 for great W-Lan connection


Not sure what NIC is referring to there, AC3100 is a WIFI speed not a model number. Could as well be a Router you are talking about.

Storage: Go for the 970 evo over the 960 pro. Specially in a consumer PC the 10 year warranty and larger TBW is more for heavy usage like data servers.
Don't you need more than 500GB storage?

No judging. But do you ever use a DVDRW? I haven't had a DVDRW in any of my builds or laptops for the past 5+ years. (You might for the music production?)

What case will you be using?
An about the sound card, I can't help there, that's really not my area. But I've heard external DAC's is the way to go.

No they will slowly start shipping in the 20th september.
Also that you don't know the name of the new cards should be enough for you not to recommend shit.
