I'm considering building an mATX setup using a 5070 Ti graphics card paired with a 9800X3D processor in a Lian A3 case. Does this seem like a solid choice? Here's the link to my build for reference: [PCPartPicker Link](https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/wyqC74)

The 9800X3D is an awesome CPU and, according to some folks, the best for gaming right now! Just keep your RAM speed at 6000 MHz or lower to avoid issues with synchronization. If you go for 6400 MHz or more, it might hurt your performance since the chips can get out of sync. Definitely looks solid!
Is the full-size ATX option any better for cooling?
Thanks for the tip about the RAM! I’ll make sure to stick with 6000 MHz.
