* **Processor**: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D 3 GHz 8-Core
* **Motherboard**: MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK ATX AM4
* **Memory**: Corsair Vengeance RGB RT 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-4600 CL18
* **Storage**: Samsung 980 Pro 1 TB NVMe SSD
* **Video Card**: PNY XLR8 Gaming VERTO EPIC-X RGB OC GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16 GB
* **Power Supply**: MSI MAG A750GL 750 W 80+ Gold Fully Modular
Thanks in advance for your input!

This build looks solid, but I have to ask—are you getting everything new? If so, might want to consider switching to AM5 for better longevity. And of course, the pricing in your area can really influence what's worth it. Just keep an eye on that!
If you’re starting fresh, it’s worth noting that investing in an AM4 setup might not be the smartest move since the Ryzen 7 5700X3D isn't being made anymore and prices can be inflated. I'd recommend looking into building on AM5 with something like the 7600X or 9600X instead.
Honestly, your memory choice seems a bit overkill. For most users, going for 3200/CL16 or 3600/CL18 would save some cash and still perform well. Plus, running memory that fast could require some tweaking to get it just right. Also, you might want to reassess that storage drive; the performance difference isn't going to be huge compared to cheaper NVMe options.
