The components are probably Linux compatible. Motherboards and their integrated components (soundcard or wireless for example) can be hit or miss, but most of the time they aren’t or will work well with at least popular distros.
Don’t trust ChatGPT on compatibility or feature lists, verify the spec or feature list on the manufacturer website. LLM’s like ChatGPT seem to have a problem with confusing specs for products listed on the same site.
AMD memory encryption seems to be listed as a Pro feature?
These seem to require support from the motherboard, CPU and OS.
It’s mostly aimed at businesses.
On the actual picks I wouldn’t get this hardware but that also depends on what you want to do with it and the price.
Disclaimer here, I’ve only “built” one PC. I did not assemble it myself. But I researched enough components to have some idea of how this list compares. A forum more dedicated to hardware might be able to provide a better answer.
Going through a complete guide on how to build PC’s and checking compatibility is probably a good idea. Having a service that deals with part compatibility on your behalf might be more convenient.
Mostly a number of components seem overkill compared to what most people need.
The Ryzen 7000 series might be a bit outdated especially since the 9000 series is probably starting to or close to coming out. But Linux compatibility is probably better on the 7000 series.
The rest is individual components and a brief idea of what to compare compatibility with.
I don’t know how well it will work with dual 4k monitors but the graphics card options seem decent. I’m mostly basing this off the multiple DisplayPort sockets, but as long as you aren’t gaming or running AI with it that should be fine.
Checking the minimum power supply recommendation for the GPU tends to be a good idea.
The case has to be long and wide enough to fit it, but I don’t expect any issues since it isn’t a large graphics card.
The Power Supply is overkill and an odd form factor. The RX 6600 recommends 450w minimum and I wouldn’t have sprung for Platinum. A 500w Gold rated PSU would probably do the trick. But I have a Corsair RM750 because it was the cheapest option I could find from the brands that seem well regarded.
The form factor here will mention something like ATX or SFX and must be compatible with the case.
Usually the rule of thumb is sticking to the graphics card’s recommended minimum wattage or a bit higher to leave room for upgrades.
The CPU and RAM are entirely dependent on what exactly you plan on doing here. But the choice seems a bit odd and again too much?
The jump from laptop to desktop seems bigger than the jump from 7 to 9.
I’m running a Ryzen 7900 with stock cooler, it rarely reaches 60*C on Linux Mint with desktop usage. It’s far more than I need. Unless you plan on compiling something or hosting a computationally intensive server a Ryzen 5 or 7 is probably a better choice. I’d also avoid the X variants unless you plan on overclocking, but that is a personal choice.
The thermal requirements on newer AMD processors are generally low enough that almost any cooler would keep up with it as long as you aren’t overclocking.
Liquid cooling AIO’s do tend to “ware out” due to evaporation though.
I’d probably go with 32GB of RAM these days, especially on Windows. But unless you have a specific reason, I wouldn’t recommend more. It’s also something that’s accessible and easy to upgrade on a desktop.
I sort of get the high end motherboard. There isn’t really any other way to get more ports. I’d mostly ask why.
Do you need to add more than 2 NVME SSD’s? More USB ports?
An AMD motherboard (B650 or B850) potentially PRO series seems better suited.
Along with the Power Supply the motherboard needs to fit in the case.
It also needs to support the CPU and RAM.
The case basically needs to fit the Power Supply, CPU cooler, motherboard and GPU.
Enough fans to keep everything cool along with them.
