Case fans: There's no need for the extra case fans, as the case comes with 3 on the front and Corsair H115i RGB PLATINUM Hydro Series High Performance CPU Cooler comes with 2 they will attach to the roof The only place left to put one would be the rear, and I'd recommend getting your own...

much better to buy one yourself and fit it yourself which wouldn't be difficult (i had to do that and have the same case)

I have a similar spec and have absolutely no issues running several applications in the back (all that you mentioned + more) on the second screen, while gaming in 4k on ultra on the first one. That's with 16gb of RAM. If you really want to waste the money, go for 32GB but i'd be surprised if...

Would need a bit more info on what you would be doing with this. 'Graphics' is very vague, and you're spending way too much in areas where it's probably not necessary. I certainly can't think of a use case for 192gb of RAM outside of situations where you really wouldn't be coming to this forum...

You'll struggle to do anything intensive enough for the stock AMD cooler not to be effective - SO I'd say stick with it. But just so you're aware, the Coolmaster water cooling kit requires 0 maintenance, as do most stand-alone CPU watercooling kits. It's a contained system.

Can't really fault, it will do what you need and more - 64GB may even be overkill for what you're doing but I don't know enough about the exact rendering you're doing in CAD. From my understanding, 32gb and a higher frequency clock speed may be a better trade-off

If i were you, i'd look at the new AMD chips, you'll probably find a more favourable core numbers & speed to price ratio than Intel. Maybe see if anyone's done any benchmarks for excel use on the new AMD chips compared to the i9-9900k I don't really know how well CoolerMaster Hyper 212X does...

You'll definitely benefit from upgrading the speed of your ram, i'd recommend 3200MHZ + if you can stretch your budget, excel likes fast RAM if you're running tens/hundreds of thousands of rows on a v-look up I'd also consider a water cooler for the I9 as it's particularly hot when you're taking...

Very similar to the build I ordered so I would vouch for it - Prices and component availability may have changed in a months time but otherwise looks good

Looks like a solid build to me. I'm assuming the extra RAM will come into play when editing and rendering recordings - The PSU may be overkill but it looks like you're going for a quite build so makes sense. Also pretty jealous of the monitor you have!

Should have no problem running ex-gen console emulators on this, may even be overkill - though it would allow you to play some actual PC games as-well with this build if you ever wanted to.

You're going to want more than 4gb of ram, minimum 8gb, 16 if you can afford it Here's the minimum requirements for Total War: Three Kingdoms: https://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=34211&game=Total%20War:%20Three%20Kingdoms

A few things I would look at Case PCS GENESIS G1B CASE + SD CARD READER - I would be worried about the cooling proficiency of this case when you're putting some high end components together, definitely look at some of the other cases which offer better cooling. If you have the budget, I can...

Memory (RAM) 32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 2400MHz (2 x 16GB) - I would change this for 16GB of 3000+MHZ RAM. There's absolutely no need for anything more than 16gb for gaming, and the extra speed will make the difference

Anything other than the RTX 2080 Ti as a graphics card will struggle to do 4k 60fps on the latest games (high/ultra settings). Trust me, I have one, and even that struggles with some games.

A couple of recommendations: Memory (RAM) 32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 2666MHz (2 x 16GB) - There's no need to have this much RAM, 16GB is more than enough for gaming, and it would be better to go for 2993MHZ or above in terms of speed, so this is a better trade off Processor Cooling Corsair...

I'm happy with it. Keeps everything cool, and on show for all the RGB elements, check it out: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/threads/new-pc-arrived-corsair-500d-se.62090/

Might I suggest a small change? You've picked the Coolmaster h500 case, then paid an extra £57 for 3x corsair LL120 RGB fans & controller, but if you simply select the Corsair Obsidian 500D SE case, it actually comes with the controller kit and 3x RGB fans as standard. Obviously when it comes to...

May be worth comparing it to the deal of the month? https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/desktop-pcs/pc-of-the-month-jun/

1000w is definitely overkill, 650w is enough for this build, but go 850w if you plan to overclock. Also i would change 32gb RAM for 16gb but faster clock speed. 3000 or 3200
