I'm putting together a PC that can handle heavy computations, CAD software, 3D rendering, and of course, gaming. I plan to use three iiyama G-Master GB2741QSU-B1 displays (IPS, 1440p, 144Hz). I'd like some input on my build to see if there are better alternatives or parts I should consider replacing. Here's my current shopping list with the parts:
- **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D 4.3 GHz 16-Core Processor - $675.59
- **CPU Cooler:** Cooler Master MasterLiquid 360 Atmos - $117.97
- **Motherboard:** Asus TUF GAMING X870E-PLUS WIFI7 - $254.99
- **Memory:** Patriot Viper Venom 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-6400 - $769.99
- **Storage:** Kingston FURY Renegade G5 2.048 TB NVME SSD - $272.50
- **Video Card:** Gigabyte WINDFORCE OC SFF GeForce RTX 5070 Ti - $769.99
- **Power Supply:** Thermaltake Toughpower PF1 1200W Fully Modular - price not listed
The total comes to approximately $2861.03. Any tips are welcome!

You might want to reconsider the power supply. A good 750W unit would be more than sufficient for your needs since the system maxes out around 600W. Keeping it lower saves some cash without sacrificing performance!
I chose a higher wattage with future upgrades in mind, but I appreciate the suggestion!
