Those are all going into one machine? If so, it will work, but the motherboard can be a lot cheaper if you want. All your stuff is pcie3 so there is little reason to get a motherboard capable of pcie4. An a320 board would work fine.

Compatibility concerns arise but several issues stand out: 1) The CPU includes an integrated GPU—do you really need it? Windows manages power states, which can lead to unexpected shutdowns. 2) A 550W rating was sufficient in 2004; today’s demands call for at least 750W from a reputable brand—it forms the core of your system. 3) Linus personally tested NVME drives in games and found SSDs more responsive. Why invest so much in this?

The Corsair iH100 water cooling setup performs significantly better than traditional fans.
