So after 5 years, my PC died today so it is time to start planing to build a new one. I was able to salvage my 1080 TI. Let me know your thoughts on the below!

An extremely well-thought out system.

Are you being serious 🙂

Eh? What a question to ask! You asked for an opinion in your OP. I complimented you on putting together a good system from that partpicker link, and you ask ' Are you being serious'. Seriously?

Relax, I didn't know if you were being sarcastic. Thanks for the compliment.

Note: The motherboard M.2 slot #1 shares bandwidth with a SATA 6.0 Gb/s port. When the M.2 slot is populated, one SATA 6.0 Gb/s port is disabled. Should be fine
Note: Some physical dimension restrictions cannot (yet) be automatically checked, such as cpu cooler / RAM clearance with modules using tall heat spreaders. Not sure about this...

And now, expect something around two to three weeks, depending on your availability, to have another P3D/XP running ok with all your addons!.

Good luck!, Ed

I must also say "Are you serious?"😏  Great looking specs! 

If I can nitpick, the power supply should probably be amped-up a little?

Good luck!

That Sabrent PCIe NVMe drive is Gen 4... the motherboard you spec'd has only Gen 3 2280 ports.  The Gen 4 drive would be wasted.  I recently bought Sabrent's Gen 3 1 TB drive and like it a lot (although I'm using it as a fast storage drive, not the OS/apps drive).  Price was great, too: Info here

Yikes, that is a popular drive!!  I bought mine 3 months ago and there was less than 500 reviews at that time!  So popular Sabrent raised the price $10 since I bought mine. :sad:  Still a great deal!

Good luck on your build!

Ah thank you for that as I didn't see that. Maybe I get the previous gen Sabrent and save money as well.

Check if the KF version of the i9-9900 is cheaper. You don't need an in-built graphics card.

Thanks but it's actually more expensive and not in stock.
