New setup, will it run?

Hi all,
I'm about to upgrade my old PC, from FX6300 to Ryzen 7 2700x. For mobo I choose:
Asus TUF X470-Plus Gaming AMD X470 (Socket AM4) DDR4 ATX Motherboard
For Ram:
Team Group Night Hawk RGB 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit - RGB Black
Apart from that I also have a Nvidia 1050ti which will be upgraded in the future.
I will be using that PC to play mainly World of Tanks, YT streaming my games and rendering some videos.
My question is: CPU mobo and RAM will run together without issues?
TIA
Slav

yeh it should run sweet as a nut, and the 2700x comes with a wraith max cooler which lights up like a christmas tree

I would have gone with a better board. It will work ok though, but not a great board for overclocking on as the VRM's are pretty poor.

Thanks for reply, which board would you choose?

For the same sort of price I would have gone with the Gigabyte board below. Out of stock at the moment though on here.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x Gigabyte X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming AMD X470 (Socket AM4) DDR4 ATX Motherboard= £134.99

Total: £145.49 (includes shipping: £10.50)
