I'm looking to put together a gaming PC that costs between $2500 and $2600, and I want to include both a 5070 Ti and a 9800X3D. Is it feasible to create a solid build with these components at this budget? What other parts should I consider, and can anyone recommend a list?

Absolutely! You can definitely fit a powerful graphics card like the RTX 5080 in your budget. Here's a build I came up with:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
- **CPU Cooler**: ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360
- **Motherboard**: Asus PRIME B650-PLUS WIFI
- **Memory**: Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR5-6000
- **Storage**: Samsung 990 EVO Plus 2TB SSD
- **Video Card**: MSI VENTUS 3X OC PLUS GeForce RTX 5080
- **Case**: Phanteks XT PRO ULTRA
- **Power Supply**: Thermaltake Toughpower GF1 850W
Total: About $2529.43. You should check it out on PCPartPicker!
Yep, it should hold up well for most setups, but if you plan on adding more components later, you might want to consider a higher wattage.
You can actually get a solid build around the 9800X3D and a 5070 Ti for under $2500. Here’s a list:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
- **CPU Cooler**: Thermalright Phantom Spirit EVO
- **Motherboard**: Gigabyte B850 GAMING X
- **Memory**: Patriot Viper Venom 32GB DDR5-6000
- **Storage**: Western Digital Black SN770 2TB
- **Video Card**: PNY OC GeForce RTX 5080
- **Case**: Lian Li Vector V100R
- **Power Supply**: Cooler Master MWE Gold 850W
Total: About $2496.86. It's a great value for what you get!
Thanks for the suggestion! Just wondering, do you think an 850W power supply is going to be enough for future upgrades?
