Hi
First sorry for any grammar mistakes, english is not my main language.
I need outside perspective on min/maxing the build I’m planning to buy next month. This will be exclusively for a gaming pc, no streaming or work related tasks. Dual ultrawide monitors, 5120x1440 and 3400x1440. Usually the big one for FPS, racing sims, … And the smaller one for others as suitable. I’m aiming for at least 120 FPS stable.
Right now I’m using a 9900k with a 2080ti, but new titles are getting difficult to get at 70-80 FPS stable. That pc is going to a new couch setup I’m setting up on my bedroom.
I’m switching to AMD since the 7800x3d is the new king now, and I’m done with Nvidia price shenanigans. I mainly use Linux, aside from a Windows partition for that only game that needs it, so AMD also seems more logical in my opinion for my setup.
In the near future (next year or so) I’m planning to switch to a more powerful GPU, hoping prices will be more reasonable so I’m keeping in mind for the system to be able to handle a stronger GPU, so the 1000W PSU.
I was thinking around 3000 € here in Spain, and I won’t trade the case, that’s a treat for myself. Still doubtful about the Mobo, the GPU brand, the RAM, cooler…
Any input is welcome, thanks!

It’s funny how people apologising for bad English usually have great English writing capabilities.
Besides that. I think your build looks fine. One thing you might consider is double checking if you really need all the things on your motherboard. I myself went with a mATX board because it has plenty of connectors for my usage.
Thanks, I struggle with my main language too (lol) so I keep wondering if I am understandable.
The motherboard has the USB, PCI, fan… connectors I think I’ll need. Not sure if Asus is a good choice after what happened with the melting cpus, but I think it should be fixed, no?
Other than that I’m not really sure if the other choices are lacking or overkill. Just want the build to be good for 5 years more or less.
As far as component builders go, I’d say Asus is one of the best out there. I have an Asus mobo, gpu, used to have an asus liquid cooler. Pretty good stuff.
