Thanks for all the info!
You'll get way more input & responses if you do the upfront work of parting out a build using PCPartPicker. Folks are way more willing to give criticism that way.
#Gaming build
red verge
There are also pre-made builds on that site which you can use as a starting-off point
I think the priorities are a little off there
- Don't get such an overkill SSD, because you really really don't need that speed for gaming
- Don't get an HDD, that'll slow down game load times dramatically. Instead, either get a very large boot SSD that isn't a 980pro, or get two cheaper SSDs
- That motherboard is wild expensive, and I'm betting you don't need all the features on it. Get a cheaper one and use that extra cash to snag a 4080 instead

resolution only affects the gpu mostly so you're fine
what games are you looking to play
should be fine
more than enough prob
some games for examples?
can even do 4k 60fps likely

cpu - 7600x outperforms the 12600k, doesn't matter much for 4K but this also gives you more room to upgrade in the future, considering AM5 has guaranteed support until 2026
cooler - contender for best aircooler on the market, only $10 more
ssd - nv2 uses qlc flash, has variable hardware, mp44l is a faster, more reliable pick
gpu - there were cheaper models available, they all work the same and all have overbuilt coolers
psu - 750w still leaves plenty of headroom, RM-e 2023 comes with native 12VHPWR so you don't have to use the adapter that comes with your GPU
7800x3d would be a good option too, although the performance increase at 4k only applies to games that like the additional cache (mostly sim games)
