Okay so I'm pretty new to custom PCs and I was wondering if what I have so far is considered "high-end" and if all the parts are compatible and what I should add/take away. I plan to use this build for gaming on ultra settings in 1440p.
The parts
CPU- Intel - Core i7-7700K 4.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU cooler- Cooler Master - Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Motherboard- Asus - STRIX Z270-E GAMING ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
Memory- Corsair - Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory
Storage- Western Digital - BLACK SERIES 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (I am considering getting an SSD as well, but I'm unsure of a good one and I don't know if it's worth it.)
Video card- MSI - GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB GAMING X Video Card
Case- Corsair - 750D ATX Full Tower Case (I feel like this case may be too big, but I do plan to switch to water cooling in a year or so, so I assume bigger means better? Also, this case comes with three fans built in and I'm wondering if I'll need more fans to keep everything cool.)
Power supply- EVGA - SuperNOVA NEX 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply
Optical drive- Asus - DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer
Operating system- Microsoft - Windows 10 Home OEM 64-bit
Sound card- Asus - STRIX SOAR 24-bit 192 KHz Sound Card (I'm confused on this because I'm pretty sure most motherboards come with one on the motherboard already, so I don't know if this is really needed.)
Monitor- Dell - S2417DG 23.8" 2560x1440 165Hz Monitor
As I said earlier, I'm pretty new to building a custom computer and I would like opinions on if this is good or not and what I should add or replace or take away and if all these parts are compatible with one another.
I also heard that Seagate Barracuda is the better choice over Western Digital Black.
I would also like to get into overclocking but I'm completely clueless as to how to go about it and if it's even safe to do without water cooling.
