Hey everyone! I'm looking to put together a PC geared for 1440p gaming, tackling various titles including RE9 and Clair Obscur. I've got an RTX 5070ti ASUS TUF and 32GB of DDR5 RAM, and I'm aiming for a white aesthetic for the build, as long as the costs don't spiral out of control. I'd prefer an AIO cooler, but I'm open to air coolers too; I've heard great things about the Peerless Assassin for its price. My total budget, which includes a display, is 1500 euros, and I'm based in Belgium. Thanks for any help!

Definitely consider the 7800X3D or 9800X3D for the CPU. Opt for a power supply rated gold with at least 750W. As for the motherboard, just go as cheap as you can manage, and for cooling, a good air cooler around 30 euros should work perfectly.
This sounds like a fun project! You've got a stellar foundation with that RTX 5070ti and 32GB of DDR5 RAM. A white-themed build with an AIO would definitely give it that polished look. Enjoy the building process!
For a solid build, check out the Asus ROG B850-A Gaming WiFi motherboard, or go for a B650 to save some cash. For the CPU, the 9800X3D is a top choice, but you might also consider the 9700X or even the 7700X if you're looking to cut down on costs. As for cooling, the Arctic Liquid Freezer 3 Pro 360 A-RGB in white would look stunning, plus you'll need a case that can fit that setup. Don't forget a reliable power supply—850W or more should do the trick. With your budget, you should still have around 300-400 euros left over for a decent gaming monitor with at least a 144Hz refresh rate!
Don't miss out on getting a 5070ti soon! There’s a free RE9 game available for anyone who buys a 50 series card (70 and up).
Those are solid picks! Just remember, I personally prefer tower coolers over AIOs. You might want to consider something like the Thermalright Peerless Assassin in White with RGB; it’s a fantastic choice!
