what do you think of my build?
i purchased some pc parts and wanted to check if the r1 universal is a suitable cooler. since local aio coolers are sold out, i'm concerned about leaks damaging components. i also asked about the maximum overclocking potential for my 7700k using the r1 universal.
Check the upper right corner of this page and request a quote from this site. It's a very trustworthy platform that delivers products from the US to other countries:

If the price turns out to be higher than local options, just save up and consider what I shared.
Your display should have a minimum of 1080p 144hz or 1440p/4k to make the most of the GPU.
Great build, you'll likely achieve a solid overclock with that cooler—it's highly rated. Good luck!
RAM is quite excessive and usually not worth much. Mobo is also unnecessary, along with the CPU cooler. You only need something similar to the Mugen 5 or Cryorig H5 for the i7 at most. Which retailers are you shopping at? What monitor do you have? What is your budget in local currency?

Nice build, you should be able to achieve a solid overclock with that cooler—it's quite highly rated. Good luck!

The RAM is quite expensive and usually not worth the price. The motherboard is also too advanced for your needs, as is the CPU cooler. You probably only need something like the Mugen 5 or Cryorig H5 for an i7.
Which stores are you shopping at?
What kind of monitor do you have?
What's your budget in local currency?
I already bought the 7700k and RAM, so I wanted to make the most of my processor in terms of overclocking. My monitor is an ASUS VX24AH 1440p.
Not an ideal selection of items.
We still require a nearby shop and a budget in the local currency.
Just to illustrate, you might achieve better results for the same price range compared to what’s listed above.

Ohh well the retailer would be http://www.pakdukaan.com/
and pc parts here usually add about 20% extra—it’s just how it is. I should also mention I have a Samsung 850 EVO NVMe 500GB SSD and my budget would be around $1700 or less, which in local currency equals 170,000rs
