I'm looking to get some feedback on my upcoming PC build before I start purchasing the components. I still need a GPU and I'm considering either the regular 5070 or possibly a 9070xt/5070ti if I can find one. Here's my PCPartPicker list: [PCpartpicker list](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hMhCnp). Any thoughts?

I noticed a few things you might want to adjust. First off, do you live near a Microcenter? It could make getting parts easier if you do!
You might want to switch to the Gigabyte B650 EAGLE AX motherboard. It's got better VRM heatsinks, more M.2 slots, and additional rear I/O ports, all at the same price as the ASUS one you picked. Also, consider upgrading to 6000 CL30 RAM. I’d recommend spending a little extra on a high-quality PSU like the NZXT C850 Gold ATX 3.1, especially if you end up going with an Nvidia GPU. For the case, a Corsair or NZXT like the Frame 4000D or H5 Flow would be a nice upgrade too.
I switched to this [Montech PSU](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/sqbypg/montech-century-ii-850-w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-century-ii-850w) based on another suggestion. Is it worth spending more for a better PSU?
No, I don’t live near one. Also, there’s no Best Buy nearby, so I’ll be shipping everything to me.
