New System Check

[Rapp]

Hi Everyone

Looking to upgrade my PC & looking at picking up the following, I've been a bit out of touch with what hardware to go for so would like to advise to make sure it looks OK.

I currently have a GTX 1080 Ti I will be moving across into this build, my main use for this will be gaming but I do run quite a few VMs from time to time.

I really wasn't sure what motherboard to go for & the X570 boards seem to have a massive price range.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Twelve Core 4.6GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £469.99
• 1 x Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB (2x32GB) DDR4 PC4-28800C18 3600MHz Dual Channel Kit (Black)= £349.99
• 1 x Samsung 970 EVO Plus 2TB M.2 2280 PCI-e 3.0 x4 NVMe Solid State Drive= £439.99
• 1 x Samsung 4TB 860 EVO SSD 2.5" SATA 6Gbps 64 Layer 3D V-NAND Solid State Drive (MZ-76E4T0B/EU)= £548.99
• 1 x Corsair HXi Series HX750i 750W '80 Plus Platinum Digital Modular Power Supply (CP-9020072-UK)= £174.95
• 3 x Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM Fan - 120mm= £29.99
• 1 x Seagate 8TB BarraCuda 5400RPM 256MB Cache Internal Hard Drive (ST8000DM004)= £159.95
• 1 x Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut High Performance Thermal Paste - 1 Gramm= £4.99
• 1 x Fractal Design Define S Midi Tower - Black= £74.99
• 1 x Gigabyte X570 AORUS PRO (AMD AM4) DDR4 X570 Chipset ATX Motherboard= £259.99
• 1 x Corsair Hydro Series H150i PRO RGB Performance Liquid Cooler - 360mm (CW-9060031-WW)= £149.99

Total: £2,738.49 (includes shipping: £14.70)​

Thanks for the input I will have a look at these 16 cores does sound tempting.

I have heard with that cooler doesn't have the longest cable between the radiator and the CPU block. Are you using this one yourself? How do you find it? Is it quiet?
