I'm putting together a new PC and want some feedback on my part list. Here's what I have so far:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7800X3D
- **Motherboard**: Nzxt N7 B650E
- **GPU**: Sapphire Pure Radeon RX 7700 XT 12GB
- **Storage**: Western Digital WD_BLACK SN770 (1TB)
- **Cooling**: NZXT Kraken RGB 360mm
- **RAM**: Vengeance 32GB DDR5 (already have)
- **Power Supply**: CORSAIR RMx Series RM750e (750 W ATX)
- **Extra Cooling**: NZXT F120RGB Duo
- **Case**: Nzxt H9 (already have)
I'm just curious if I'm missing anything or if there are any changes I could make to improve this build.

You might want to consider replacing the liquid cooler with an air cooler to save some cash and reduce complexity. That way, you can reallocate those funds towards a better GPU like the RX 7800 XT or even RX 7900 GRE. Honestly, I don't think you need the extra cooling for this setup.
A decent suggestion would be to stick with the 7800X3D for your CPU, but consider downgrading to an air cooler if aesthetics aren't your top priority. You can likely find other options for the storage as well, like the SN850X, which might be around the same price as the SN770 for better performance.
That's interesting! I wonder why you prefer the R5 7600X over the 7800X3D when it's a powerful chip already? What's the advantage?
Totally agree, there's no need for all that cooling in this build! You could save some money and still have excellent performance.
