Build Advice First Build, any thoughts before I buy ?

[Nightlytm]

Hi there, this is my very first build and it’s been a struggle so far. Prices and availability where I live are an absolute joke so I had to do a lot of research when picking each component. Most components are still up for debate, but I already bought the RAM, SSD and an extra fan. (The picture is the closest thing to final product I could find)
I’ll post the PCP and my thought process on why I chose each part down bellow, any recommendations is welcome. Thanks so much in advance

The Target performance is getting 1440p at 240 on Destiny 2 and Warzone, and from what i’ve seen this should be attainable.

CPU: 9800x3D is 150$ more expensive, I don’t think it’s worth it.

AIO: best looking one I could find for the price, no Arctic Freezer III available sadly.

RAM: Already bought, Looks good and was 101$.

SSD: Already bought, Good reviews and speeds

GPU: Cheapest 9070xt I could find, the 5070ti are 180$ more.

Case: I like it, 270 angle good price and comes with 4 fans (3 reverse)

PSU: 3.1 and A tier on SPL Tier list

Motherboard: Prices are a joke, and there are basically 4 I can choose from (My RAM isn’t in the gigabyte QVL, but it is available on the MSI QVL)

-MSI Pro B650 S Wifi = 195$
-Gigabyte B650 Eagle AX = 195$
-Gigabyte B650 GAMING X AX V2 = 225$
-MSI B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI = 240$

The Antec is an 011D clone, going to need more fans IMO. I cannot really comment on DDR5 and Team Group but know G Skill to be a really good choice on DDR4. Not sure about (all) MSI power supplies either, but the rating seems pretty decent on that one. Assume you have checked connectors already.

Really can't fault the build from a quick look.

Hi there, I was concerned about the fans but here is the set up:
Intake: 3 Reverse fans (come with the case) and 1 Arctic 120mm Fan
Exhaust: 3 Fans from the AIO and 1 Fan form the Case

4 Intake 4 Exhaust

Give it a go. I mean, all it can be is picking up a couple more fans (maybe a hub) where and if there is room for them. I have an o11D and where I LOVE the build itself, there are some cooling issues due to all the (fish tank) glass. It makes for a darned nice looking build when planned correctly.

MB already has a heat sink for primary M.2 socket better than that on your chosen SSD because it was made to handle much hotter PCIe v5.0 SSDs.

"....prices and availability where I live. " ............................................................................................................
Which is where? Preferred site for purchase? Budget ?

If it is a secret, that's your choice/right/business. But it makes it harder for people to help you when you don't give location, budget, preferred stores. Without knowing what is available and at what prices, how do you expect to be helped make a better choice?( do you know what parts/prices are in my country? Can you give me useful advice without knowing that?)
I sure hope you understand what i am saying, and "don't take it the wrong way".

Fair point, here are the 4 main sites that offer computer parts. Rest of websites are just not worth checking out.

Looks like a good build although I wouldn’t personally bother with an AIO cooler, a decent air cooler would do fine too and won’t need maintenance or replacing in few years.

I was going to buy a Deepcool Assassin 4 at first, but air coolers are just too massive. Yes it’s 50$ less than the Corsair AIO but I didn’t like how bulky it was and decided to spend the extra 50 on esthetics lol.

To each his own I guess. Good luck with the build.
