New build advice/ help

[Sylver123]

Hi I'm planning to build a new computer for use for Gaming and Multimedia usage like Ultra 4k playback etc. I'll be buy most of hardware for my new build. I'm buying the main components to get my new system up and running.

Once I've got my new system build and up and running, I'll be planning to save up and get myself either one of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 or 4090 series Graphics Cards.

Right now, I'll either be using my old card which is a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 1080 if that card will work in my new system? Or would me using the built-in GPU from the Intel Core i9-14900K be a better option than my old Graphics Card for now until I save the required money for my new Graphics Card? Also what PSU would be recommended for my new build, baring in mind I'll be upgrading to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 or 4090 series Cards and I also intend to overclock the system as well so I'll need a PSU that's going to have enough power for the system even when I overclock the max out of it.

Also what's the best Thermal Paste I should get for the CPU?

Thanks for any suggestions/ recommendations.

The list of hardware components I've got below is what I'm going to buy so far to get the build up and running.

Hardware for my new system:

Corsair iCUE 7000X RGB Tempered Glass Full Tower Smart Case - Black (CC-9011226-WW)

MSI MEG CORELIQUID S360 ARGB Performance Liquid CPU Cooler - 360mm

Asus ROG Maximus Z790 Apex Encore (LGA 1700) DDR5 ATX Motherboard

G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB XMP 48GB (2x24GB) DDR5 PC5-62000C40 8400MHz Dual Channel Kit - Bl

Intel Core i9-14900K (Raptor Lake-S) Socket LGA1700 Processor - Retail

Hi guys I've been out of the PC scene for a few years now so I'm out of touch on the modern technology hardware. I've had a Google around now which i should have done before making the topic, and come to the conclusion that as far as I've read, Intel Socket LGA1700 is dead and Intels latest CPUs for this socket are fast but they don't overclock well at all also as I was going to go the LGA1700 and Core i9-14900k route means there's no upgradability there as this socket is dead. For me it's probably better me waiting it out a few months more see what's available. I've herd about Intel Arrow Lake and also a member just mentioned about AMDs new 9800x3d will be here soon as well so all in all I'm best waiting the now. It's not long before the end of the year so I might as well wait.
