I'm back to get some help for my upcoming PC build. My first build turned out great thanks to the suggestions I received before, so I'm hoping for the same this time around! I'm aiming to create a machine in the $3,500 USD range and while I don't necessarily need it to support 4K gaming, I want a solid build that will last me for the next 3-4 years. My goal is to play on a 1440p monitor and achieve 165-240 fps without having to mess around with in-game graphics settings too much. I've put some parts together already, and I would really appreciate some feedback on any potential issues or considerations I should keep in mind.

I noticed one potential issue: the Meshify 3 case only supports a 360mm radiator in the front, not the top. It might be wise to go for the Arctic Freezer 3 280 instead on top to keep the front fans for intake, just like I did with my 9800X3D and Arctic 280—it keeps everything nice and cool!
You might want to rethink some components in your build to avoid overspending. Check out this configuration I made [here](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mjDyDj). It could give you better performance for the price!
Your build looks pretty solid! I think it should stand the test of time and perform well for the next 5-6 years without major issues. Just make sure to keep up with any software updates as you go.
Thank you for taking a look!
Thank you! I wouldn't have caught that until I started building, and I really don’t want to mount the 360 on the front.
