Hey everyone! I last built my gaming PC in 2015, and I'm finally ready to put together a new one that's up-to-date and good for gaming. I mainly play games and occasionally stream on Discord with friends, so I'm not too concerned about anything beyond that. I'd love your input on whether I should consider changing or upgrading any components from my list. You can check out my build here: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tspwRV. Thanks!

Have you looked into whether you really need the X870E chipset? A more budget-friendly B850 motherboard might save you some cash without losing much functionality. You could invest that extra money elsewhere in your build, like a better graphics card or additional cooling options.
Also, don't forget to think about your case! The one you picked might limit airflow, especially if you're going with an air cooler. Adding a few extra fans or switching to an AIO cooler could really help with temperatures.
Definitely consider upgrading your GPU! That cash difference could help you get a 5070ti instead, which would greatly enhance your gaming experience.
