Bought parts for a new pc as my current one is really struggling with 4k.
Think this will do it?
Corsair Carbide Clear 400C Midi Tower Corsair TX750M, 750W PSU
Intel Core i7-7820X Prosessor
Corsair Hydro H100 Bulk without fans
Noctua NF-F12 PWM 120mm fan
Noctua NF-F12 PWM 120mm fan
MSI X299 Gaming Pro Carbon, Socket-2066
Crucial Ballistix Sport LT DDR4 16GB
Crucial Ballistix Sport LT DDR4 16GB
MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Armor OC
Samsung PM961 SSD 512GB M.2 NVMe
Seagate Firecuda 2TB 3.5" SSHD
MS COA Win 10 Home Nordic
This will also be the first time I build it without help. I am very excited.

That'll do 4K just fine. The CPU seems a bit excessive unless you're doing production work?

You probably should have went with a 7700k, or he'll even a Ryzen 5 1600 would be fine, especially at 4k. The gaming performance from that cpu doesn't justify its exorbitant price. Quite frankly the 7700k will almost always outperform it in gaming due to higher ipc.

Edited by Psychic Donuts: 8/11/2017 5:25:48 AMYeah dude you'll be more than ok. Have fun. Fair warning though, 4k is never as smooth as 1440p or 1080p. On some graphically heavy games, you might want to go for 1440p if you don't want to turn your settings down.

What's gonna be your main use gaming or workstation stuff ?

Oh hey we have the same graphics card :) I went with Ryzen for CPU because I needed the workstation multithreaded capabilities. But regardless, I still think that 4K gaming will be fine with the 1080 ti...unfortunately we don't get monstrous FPS like the lower resolutions but it is still a smooth experience for a single GPU. My only concern is the fact that the utilization will be pretty high at 4k, aka the card will be stressed regularly if 4k gaming is done casually. I like to not run into any thermal throttling or stress my components a lot so I don't do 4k gaming casually yet since I am satisfied with 1440p & 1080p given the great FPS at pretty much medium load.( I focused mostly on the graphics card because at first glance I haven't found any major bottleneck or other issue with the build, and the components are modern and future-proof)

you should wait for the hardware geeks' opinions on here. there are quite a few. to me your setup looks quite highend. not sure how many games really support 4k atm thouh. heard most of it is just upscaled. but im not a gamer that likes graphics.

Dont see a 4k monitor.
