Am I missing anything? Is it compatible with the motherboard?
I am building a gaming desktop to replace my 12-year-old Alienware X51 Intel i3 (I know…I know) system. I'm curious to know whether I'm missing anything crucial or have anything incompatible with a critical component. Take a look at my build link below. And yes, I know it's missing a keyboard, mouse, and monitor. I already have those. Just need the desktop for now.

If you aren't having too many money problems, I would suggest an ASROCK Challenger 9070XT (which is a slightly worse 5070ti for a fraction of the price) for performance per dollar, and you'd get much higher frames with that GPU with your selected processor than a 5060ti. Also, what resolution are you playing at?

having 4 sticks of ram could overload your motherboard's ram controller a potentially cause bluescreens. I would recommend 2 sticks of 32gb to prevent that.
