I'm planning to upgrade my PC to include an RTX 5070 12GB graphics card, but I'm not sure what other components I need to make it all work together. I know RAM prices are high right now, but I still intend to get 32GB of DDR5 RAM. The problem is, my current CPU and motherboard don't support DDR5, so I need recommendations on those too. I've linked my current parts below, and I've seen a bundle on Newegg, but I'm concerned that the CPU in that kit might be too powerful for what I need. Also, does it really matter what brand or type of DDR5 RAM I get as long as I stick to 32GB? I appreciate any advice!

If you're near a Micro Center, definitely look into their bundles. I got a killer deal on mine, and it saved me quite a bit!
Are you located in the US? If you happen to be near a Micro Center, you should definitely check them out. They usually have some great bundles that could save you a lot of cash!
First up, what's your budget for the upgrade? Knowing that can really help narrow down your options!
I'm looking at around $1000 to $1500.
