Welcome everyone! I have a great favour to ask. I have my PC build ready, although I would like to get a second opinion on whether all of that will work together. I don't ask really about alternatives for parts etc., just compatibility! Although, if you feel that there is something wrong, scold me!

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £1,757.87 (includes shipping: £0.00)​

PC CASE IS UNDER THIS LINK - https://www.silentiumpc.com/products/gladius-m35-2/

Thank you very much in advance! Godspeed! : )
 
Welcome to the forums.

I know its all down to personal preference but that case is horrible especially if spending all that cash on components :)
 
if you bought it already, yes it'll work together.
if you haven't bought it yet, you can get a better spec for the money.
 
I didn't bought it yet, do not worry. What case would you recommend then? I am really hitting the top of my budget, but I may be able to do something. Tamzzy, could you tell me more then? Thank you for fast response by the way!
 
better motherboard, cheaper ram with leds, combined the 2 ssds to one monster 1tb nvme ssd, better power supply. added case.

A 1080ti build (with silenced case) is possible for not much more money:

Journey - Adobe Software, and a bit of gaming. SSD for particular files and 32GB RAM for hungry Adobe Software (Premiere Pro, Illustrator etc.) But in general it is something big for me as it is my next upgrade after 7 years. : )

Ah, if you are using Premier Pro etc. you should keep your eyes open for good GTX 1080 deals then, some knocking around £450-460 these days, and prices are falling daily. I wouldn't be paying anything over £380 for a 1070Ti, and if you aren't gaming a massive amount then the GTX 1080Ti is overkill since it only offers about 9-11% over a GTX 1080 in those sorts of applications, buy you are paying 50% more for it.

I'd also look into getting the newer Samsung 970 EVO, they are the same sort of price as the 960, give or take £10, and offer a much better number of write cycles, oh and they are a little bit faster. :)

RGB overkill system, @orbitalwalsh does the microatx version of the case have the 2.5/3 slot issue that the itx version has?

Minus the over the top RGBness, can save more money by swapping out the AIO for an air cooler tho would require suggestions from the others. Also can cut the size of the nvme if it’s too much.​

GPU is slightly better quality and you've got Gigabytes UK based RMA and rep support on here like wise for the board. Not hard to find them active . Seems ASRock rep hasn't been active for a long time looking at their thread :/
Would personally push Asus over ASRock

Would also ditch the NVMe unless you are handing vast amounts of data ! Just not worth the cost

Noticed you've also went for a silent case, bequiet like above of fractal design

Gone for the saving cash option . And as a hint , that K3 z370 you've selected... Here a B360 Aorus 3 . Aorus can and gone and built their H/B boards to max specs and are better then 80% of Z boards for features and VRM design (much better then their own as well) . The above board is pretty much what a budget Z390 board will be - just with the ability to OC as it's a Z chip . Since it's now official and push lines ... Unfortunately AMD will beat Intel to the *90 punch by a bit in time scale , if I was going to by a Z370 board, I'd be buying a Flagship board like Hero/Aorus 7 / Taichi and with WiFi as that's the new pushing point of B/H and New Zealand chips . Also if I remember correctly *90 naming scheme will replace *70 due to amd using the serial number to its advantage ... Until they went and got a z490 chipset... See the pattern here

WiFi is killer if you happen to have BT Smart/Home Hub 6​

I do like south's Power play rig , some beef right there !!!!!
