I'm putting together a PC build and would love some feedback! It's been a while since my last build, and I already have a graphics card (the Asus PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 Ti for about 1089 CAD). The total build is around 2500 CAD before potential discounts from Prime Day sales. My goal is to get a solid 1440p experience while also having decent 4K capabilities without overspending. Here are the parts I'm considering:
- AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D for 500 CAD
- ID-COOLING FX360 AIO for 120 CAD
- ASUS PRIME B840-PLUS ATX AM5 Motherboard for 190 CAD (this is the component I'm unsure about, I also need a Wi-Fi card since I don't always have access to ethernet)
- TEAMGROUP T-Force Delta 32 GB (2x16GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory for 130 CAD
- Klevv CRAS C910 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD for 180 CAD
- NZXT H6 Flow case for 147 CAD
- be quiet! Pure Power 12 M 850W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply for 160 CAD
I've updated the post to include a link to my parts picker list for easier access: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/xmCffd. Any suggestions for tweaks or components would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Your build looks solid overall but I wouldn't recommend that ASUS PRIME B840-PLUS motherboard. You'd be better off with a B650 or B850 model for better performance. It's crucial to invest in a good motherboard for future upgrades and stability.
Thanks for the advice! I'll definitely look into the B650 or B850 options. Do you have any specific brands or models in mind that are reliable?
