I'm putting together a new PC featuring a 5070 Ti that I snagged at MSRP. I'm looking for any tips or tweaks for my build, which has a budget of around 2500 CAD. I'm using a bundle from Canada Computers for the CPU, motherboard, and RAM, saving me roughly $100. Here's a link to the bundle: [Canada Computers Bundle](https://www.canadacomputers.com/en/amd-desktop-processors/267277/amd-r7-7800x3d-cpu-gigabyte-b650-eagle-ax-motherboard-t-force-32gb-d5-6000mhz-cl30-ram.html).
I'm also considering a 4K OLED monitor but might hold off until Prime Day to snag a good deal. Any recommendations for a monitor would also be appreciated!

If I were you, I'd consider swapping out the CPU cooler for something less fancy. You don’t really need that heavy-duty cooler for the Ryzen 7. A simpler one like the Thermalright Phantom Spirit would do the job just fine!
I went for an AIO mostly for aesthetics and to give it a shot since I'm not too tight on cash.
