Hey everyone! I'm putting together my first PC build, and I'm aiming for a cool aesthetic vibe rather than pure performance. I'm on a budget of $2500 and want to finalize my parts tomorrow since it's Prime Day. I've shared my build link here: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XcLzcx. I was wondering if there's anything I can tweak, apart from considering an upgrade to a 5080 instead of investing in RGB components. Any quick opinions would be super helpful!

I'd recommend a CL30 RAM kit. Just a heads up, the Pro version of the Arctic cooler can be really noisy according to tests, so I'd suggest going with their regular model or another brand. Also, that SSD seems like overkill for your needs!
Definitely consider swapping the PSU for the NZXT C850 Gold ATX 3.1; it's a better option and around the same price. Also, upgrade to DDR5 6000 CL30 RAM for improved performance. And instead of spending on a fancy AIO with separate fans, why not get a Lian Li AIO? It'll match with those RGB fans and could end up costing you less overall!
What makes the NZXT PSU better?
What cooler would you suggest instead?
