Hey everyone! I'm new to building PCs and could really use some advice on selecting a motherboard, case, and fans for my gaming rig. My goal is to create a solid setup to play games with my friends, but I'm not very knowledgeable about all the components. Here's what I have so far:
**CPU:** AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 4.7 GHz 8-Core
**CPU Cooler:** Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE 66.17 CFM
**Memory:** TEAMGROUP T-Create Expert 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30
**Storage:** Western Digital WD_Black SN850X 4 TB M.2 NVME
**Video Card:** Gigabyte WINDFORCE OC GeForce RTX 4070 12 GB
**Power Supply:** Corsair RM1000e 1000 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular
I'm also using a Fractal Design Focus G Mid Tower Case. If you think anything else in my list isn't great, feel free to share your thoughts!

First off, what's your budget? Are you located in the US? If so, being near a Micro Center could help you save some cash!
Thanks for asking! I forgot to mention my budget, which is around $2000 give or take. I’m near a Micro Center too!
