It's enouge wattage yes but I would change that psu since if i got the right one almost 7-9 years old so it's time to get a good 550W psu in my opinion (depending on your budget that is).
I wouldn't recommend upgrading that cpu to a another cpu from the same socket. It's dead socket (no longer being produced), outdated, performance increase will be negligible and you will probably overpay since you almost can't find it anymore.
Depending on your budget i would probably get a motherboard and cpu from a newer generation and also DDR4 Ram.
There is more to life then drinking, smoking weed and being popular. There are people who think it's fun or even "living" and there are people who don't. You can go out if you want to but don't have to drink alcohol. People who say you aren't part of the group if you don't drink are close to braindead and should be avoided.
Just do what you like to do. Don't be a follower.
You are "only" 16 you have so much years ahead of you. So many people to meet. Work hard and good things will come. Be patient ;)
It's worth it if you don't have to cut back on having better parts like a better gpu or cpu.
What brands would you recommend
Brands i like are hardwarelabs for rads, bitspower for fittings and tubing, sigularity computer for reservoir, gpu block from phanteks or watercool, cpu block from watercool/optimus/phanteks and Aquacomputer, liquid from Mayhems.
can I do a lot of RGB lights without water cooling?
Ofcourse you can. These days almost every part in your computer can have rgb lightning.
I am worried about water leaking or something going wrong.
Leaking is always possible when you venture in the world of watercooling. But most of the times leaking happens when you build the loop and test it the first time. But if it holds for the first hours you can be sure it's alright.
I don't really understand the link between what i personally think and having a degree in political science? My english is not the best could be what it is.
The evga 550W G3 psu has 10 years warranty so should be good for the coming years while that EVGA BQ 750 "only" has 5 years warranty. The G3 psu is just a better psu overall but if you want more wattage for whatever reason go with the evga 650W G3 or corsair RM650(x). 550W-650W is plenty for your system even if you would go with a 2080ti and a 3950x.
I understand what you are saying and overall your build looks good (after you changed that psu that is ;) ).
Haven't seen any good ones that can actually compete against Trump. A very important topic that is lacking in the US (same in Europe) is how are we going to reduce the deficit and reduce government spending.
I think the ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-F has the same vrm as your prime and the aorus pro is a bit better (vrm wise) but don't think it's worth $100 more. So your mobo in my view is plenty for that 9700k even if you plan to overclock.
2 roads you can take. Better cpu and mobo combo so for example ryzen 2600 with ASRock B450M Pro4-F or Intel Core i3-9100F / Intel Core i5-9400 with Gigabyte B365M DS3H (mobo's and cpu's are ofcourse suggestions)
Or the other road a better gpu like EVGA GeForce GTX 1660 Super 6 GB SC ULTRA GAMING
So if you are happy with your current gpu go with the cpu upgrade and save up for a better gpu in the future or the other way.
I see no reason why i wouldn't work. Problem is there is so much RAM mobo makers just don't have the time to test them all. But if you want to be close to 100% (can't be 100% sure) it's recommended to go with the RAM on the QVL list.
Cooler should fit your case since that case can have cpu coolers with max length of 167 mm and that 212 cooler is 158.8 mm. Also shouldn't be any problem for that RAM.
But are there parts you already have or is this build something you plan on buying? Just asking because it doesn't make alot of sense like that 1060 for £400 and a 850W psu is also overkill.
A 2016 psu i believe with 3 years warranty so i would indeed save up to buy a new psu in the near future. Not because i won't work it probably will but often psu's with 3 year warranty aren't the best and it's better to find a new one after you passed that warranty.
The biggest thing for me about this discussion (and most things in general) is that i feel that alot of people have forgotten how to talk to eachother. Alot of these "misconceptions" as you will can be easily solved if people just talk to eachother. I see to many people not willing to talk to eachother just because they are more to left or more to the right or anything else. This division or sometimes even pure hate can't be good in the long term.
I don't know any country on this planet that forces you to celebrate christmas. You are free to ignore it. Plenty of companies look for extra people during those festivities so if you want to work during those times you will find it.
The main differences between RM and RMx is better capacitors and a higher quality fan for the RMx but bother are excellent psu's and both have 10 years warranty.
So like i said a 550W RMx would be enough for your build but spending more for a RM850x would not be worth it especially since the RM850 is a £40 less. So the choice is between a RM550X or a RM850. I would personally go with the RM550X since its plenty but if you for what ever reason want more wattage the RM850 it is.
For storage am all for ssd's since they make no sound when they run and thats for me a big plus and they are very fast. So if you are prepared to pay for it i would say go for it.
Every year on 5 and 6 december in Western Europe we celebrate Sinterklaas. It's the patron saint of children and it's tradition to give the children a present(s) and all kinds of activities are organized around Sinterklaas in schools, towns and cities. Pics and more here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas
For several years now a debate is going on in Western Europe if we should make some couple changes because it's tradition for the followers or helpers of Sinterklaas to paint their faces black. Because in these "sensitive" times people associate it as racism or slavery.
