As someone who doesn't have much experience with builiding computers (only built one), I would really like some feedback on this build to make sure everything looks nice & compatible.

CPU: Intel i7 9700k 3.6 Hz
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master - MasterLiquid ML240R RGB 66.7
MB: ASRock - Z390 Pro4 ATX LGA1151
Memory: Team T-Force Vulcan 32 GB (2x16)
Storage: SSD: Crucial MX300 1 TB HDD: Seagate Ironwolf Pro 4 TB
GPU: GeForce RTX 2080
Case: Fractal Design - Define R6 Blackout TG ATX Mid Tower
PSU: EVGA - 750 W 80+ Gold

This computer will be part of a dual-PC streaming setup, and will serve as my gaming computer, with the other computer being the streaming computer. It's a triple monitor setup and games will be played at 1920x1080.

Please let me know if there's anything you would change about this build, and if you want, share your thoughts on my case choice and cooler. If there's better options, my ears are open. Is 32 GB of RAM really necessary? What's your thoughts on liquid cooling? Never tried it before.

I'm nervous about building this computer, and would really appreciate any insight you guys can offer!!

Thank you.

As long as that power supply is a g2 g3 or gq good Its a g1 or nex then change it

32 gb ram has no gaming benefits but I suppose might come into play at some point streaming in The future

You basically have to liquid cool that cpu

I would get the following:

A better higher tier MB instead of that budget MB.
Better RAM and you don't need 32 GB.
Better CPU cooler
If the PSU isn't a G2 or G3 then replace that also.

You really cut corners on quality.

Cutting corners on quality is definitely not something I'm trying to do. That's why I posted here, to make sure I'm getting the best bang for my buck.

Would you recommend any specific type of RAM or Cooler?

Here's the link for the PSU, not sure if it's a G2 or G3: https://www.outletpc.com/is7485-evga-210-gq-0750-v1-750w.html?utm_source=is7485-evga-210-gq-0750-v1-750w&utm_medium=shopping%2Bengine&utm_campaign=pcpartpicker&utm_content=EVGA%2B-%2BPower%20Supplies%20%3E%20ATX%20Power%20Supply&sscid=11k3_dy3hw

Thank you

If 32 GB of RAM has no benefits compared to 16, I will go with 16 for now and can always upgrade in the future.

Is that a good liquid cooler, or would you get something better?

Yeah I know, but there have been problems with them.

Sometimes the reviews don't tell everything, they test one unit.....

It's only after they are out and people using them that the issues start to surface over time.

Like all of the Corsair models below the TXM... ;)
