Hey everyone! I'm looking to build a powerful PC primarily for playing 4X strategy games like Stellaris, Crusader Kings, and Civilization. I need something that handles large maps and plenty of players without any slowdowns during the mid-game. I also want a high-end graphics card to ensure smooth gameplay in Diablo 4, given its optimization issues. It's been a while since I last built a PC, so I'm seeking your advice on my component choices. If you see any glaring mistakes, recommend better parts with more longevity for a similar price, or point out anything unreliable that I might have accidentally chosen, I'd appreciate it! My aim is to have a build that looks great in white if possible. Additionally, I'm planning to vertically mount the GPU for the first time; any tips on that would be great! I'm considering the EZDIY-FAB Vertical GPU Mount but I'm open to suggestions. I hope to hear from you soon!

Consider switching to a cheaper AIO cooler and a lesser-known but good-quality RAM. You really don’t need a 1000W PSU unless you're planning to add additional powerful GPUs later on.
Yeah, also look into adding more fans for better airflow. It’ll help keep your build cool when you're pushing it harder.
$1000 for a 5070 Ti seems way too high! You could definitely look at alternatives that might give you better performance at a lower cost.
