I'm looking for some feedback on my upcoming PC build. It's been over five years since I last built one, and I'm a bit out of the loop on what's currently good. Here's the link to my proposed build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tzXB3w. I'm planning to upgrade soon, so any advice would be appreciated!

Your build looks solid for the most part! I recommend considering a cheaper AIO or going for an air cooler to save some cash. You could use those savings to upgrade to a Ryzen 5 9600X and opt for CL30 RAM instead of CL36. Also, I've seen Windows keys going for about $20-30, which can help cut costs. Just a heads up, some folks might say the VRAM on the 5070 isn't great, but I'm still using an RTX 3070 and it runs smoothly.
Thanks for the suggestions! Could I reuse the cooler from my old CPU if I clean it up?
Nice tips! But I'm hearing mixed reviews about the 5070. By the way, where can I actually find Windows for that price?
