Hi everyone, I am looking to build a new PC and would like some feedback. I researched the different components and I believe everything should be compatible and fit in the case I chose. For reference, I am coming from an i7 8700k and an RTX 3070. My use case is 4k or 1440 gaming with demandings titles like Cyberpunk, with at least 60fps (preferably without needing to use DLSS too much) and mid to high settings. I also do some light video and photo editing, with some stable diffusion use. Here are the parts I picked so far. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XHyYLc

The GPU in there is a place holder, but I know I want either a 4080 or 4070 ti. I am going to shop around for the best deals but I want to make sure these components will work well together. All of the parts missing are parts I’ll transfer from my old rig.

Thanks!

EDIT: looks like the 7800x3d is out of stock. So ill switch it with a 9700x.

EDIT2: 7800x3d is back in stock lol

EDIT 3: the RAM I’m looking to get isn’t on the QVL list with the motherboard. What are the odds it won’t work? I can’t imagine they are able to test every ram model with their boards.

    FSR is definitely generally not as good as DLSS but it seems to always depend more on each individual games implementation of them. I don’t think I’ve done a fair comparison of testing a cutting edge newer game built with both in mind using a cutting edge implementation of them both.

    (Also of course if I’m testing FSR I’m doing it on an NVIDIA card which while totally functional isn’t really the intended use)
