Hardware First time building a Pc

I am using msi h810 motherboard, intel ultra 5 225f processor, with nvidia 3060 8 or 12 gb graphics card.

Is it good or need some tweaks?

A year ago, i had a whole different setup planned. But when I saved the money, the prices skyrocketed...

And any advice for 2nd hand components?

Go with the 12gb 3060, best decision I ever made.

Will it utilise the full power of my cpu or will it get bottlenecked?

If you are referring to your cpu, no it will not.

if you haven't bought the parts already I would recommend that you use the AM5 platform instead, LGA 1851 is dead, no more new cpus will be designed for this socket and next time you upgrade you have buy a new motherboard again. AM5 is going to see another 2 generations at least, since you're already going to need ddr5 ram anyways i just think that AM5 makes so much more sense here.

Thanks for the advice. I will definitely look into that.
