There is no reason you should have problems with a modern AIO cooler. Many of us (including me) have one, so we are putting our money where our mouth is. The Corsair 5000x is a good looking case with good airflow. It isn’t the cheapest case, but there are more expensive cases (including the 500D...

I am not clear what you are asking for help with. You need to be clearer.

The cooler comes with high quality paste pre-applied, so selecting the Arctic paste is actually a backwards step. I am not sure that the case you have selected is that good for airflow. The Corsair 4000D Airflow is a similar price, as is the COOLERMASTER MASTERBOX TD500 MESH ARGB GAMING CASE

I would want a Corsair cooler with that CPU. Quite a few are out of stock, but the H100i PRO XT would do the job.

I would make some change. I have picked a better case, dropped the RAM, as most games don’t need more then 16GB, improved storage, PSU and cooling and selected a more appropriate graphics card for 1440p gaming. I would recommend you get an external DVD player, as most cases don’t take them now...

What spec of monitor will you be buying? The 3080 needs a big budget monitor to be worthwhile (4K 144 Hz or Samsung G9). Assuming that you will buy a monitor suitable for the 3080, I would go for something like this. I have improved storage, PSU and cooling and paid for that by reducing the...

What will you be using the PC for? What is your budget? What monitor will you be using (make and model or resolution and refresh rate}? Where are you getting Windows from?

I think many on the forum happily run the Samsung G5 with a 3060Ti

I fear you are overthinking things. It would be a good idea to look at some monitors in the flesh first, decide on what you like and buy that. Then select the graphics graphics card to match the monitor. It doesn't make sense to fixate on a top of the range GPU and then worry about a suitable...

Make sure to remove Bullguard

First thing to do is call PCS and register the PC. You will then get access to the full specs, which you can post here.

Be very careful where you buy your Windows licence key. There are lots of bogus sites around. If it is much cheaper, then the licence key will not be legitimate. It might work for a while, but it could stop your PC working. Personally, I wouldn't want to download anything from someone who is...

That is an excellent monitor for design, CAD/CAM, animation, etc., but is not a gaming monitor. I have a similar BenQ photo editing monitor, but I don't use it for games. With the build from @Steveyg you have room in the budget for a 1440p gaming monitor to supplement your existing screen.

You are definitely missing out by not having M.2 drives, especially on a high spec build. There are a number of areas where this can be improved. We would need to know you budget and what you would be using the pc for. The 3090 is wasted on a 1440p monitor and most of its power will not be used...

What is your budget? What is the Pc for? What monitor will this be paired with (make and model or resolution and frame rate)? For a start, almost nobody on here would recommend Intel at present. AMD wins in pretty much every scenario. The case and PSU are also not ideal.

I would then be worried for those not wearing a red shirt. In Star Trek it was always obvious who was going to get killed on a new planet.

Captain Kirk is due to go to the edge of space today. I must say that William Shatner doesn’t look bad for a 90 year old.

4k really needs 32". I have never heard of that brand and would want to buy from a reputable manufacturer (ideally with recommendations from here) if I was to spend £100s of my hard earned cash.

144Hz is probably the probably about the ideal frame rate, as the vast majority of people cannot see the difference in frame rate much above 120Hz. 60Hz is a bit slow for modern games. More resolution gives more detail. 1080p is now old hat and you wouldn't want that above 24". 1440p is great...

I also need a solution to dust. Do these just create a big cloud of dust for me to breathe in, because that would not be suitable for me? Are there equivalent solutions that suck the dust in and retain it?
