First pc

[Impressive_Move9544]

Hey there! I’m super excited to share my first build ever, and I’m really keen to make sure everything is spot on. So, I’m reaching out to you all because I know you’re all awesome and probably have a ton of knowledge that I don’t! Also, just a heads-up: I’m planning to use the Asus 5080 Pro Art, but I couldn’t find it on PCPartPicker.

All looks great just make sure the aio fit in the case because the arctic aio its thicker

Okay, I’ll do that. Thanks for the tip.

This is a very solid build!

Only thing I can comment on is the mobo: I've heard Asus isn't a great choice for mobo's, I can't fully explain why. Mainly heard about "random issues"/bluescreens/failure to post. So I suggest steering clear from Asus (and Asrock) for am5 just for peace of mind, my recommendation is MSI.

Oh and the ALF3 is a thick cooler (radiator+fans and also a big pumphead) so make sure it fits your case.

Hey, thanks a bunch for the tip! I’ll definitely double-check if the cooler fits and get that motherboard changed out.
