Hello all, bought the 399$ microcenter bundle i9 (12th gen) 12900k, asus z790-v Prime, & G. skill Ripjaws S5 DDR5 and bought a xfx rx 6800 for 379$ separately. Is this a decent system? I can't find much info about the motherboard. Will this be a fast system? Or will there be bottleneck with the 6800? Anything else I should be worried about? Any recommendations?

Thanks

Nice. That should be fast enough for most tasks. That gpu ( assuming its the non xt) might struggle at 4k depending on the game, if that matters to you. Good news is GPUs are easy to upgrade if you ever feel you want more.

Very fast, more than decent

Good stuff. The 6800 is a decent card. You can try to undervolt it, maybe even the cpu to get slightly higher boost clocks and lower power consumption. Its easy to do for the gpu at least.
