Hey everyone! I'm excited to build my first PC and I've got a budget of around £2000. I'll mainly be using it for gaming, aiming for 1440p—though I might upgrade to a 4k monitor later on. After doing some research, I put together the following specs: Radeon RX 9070 XT, Ryzen 7 9800X3D, ASUS B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI, 32GB Crucial Pro DDR5 RAM (6400MHz), 1TB Crucial P510 PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD, 850W CORSAIR RMx SERIES PSU, and a CORSAIR FRAME 4000D RS case. I'm curious about a few things: 1. Are all these components compatible? I'm pretty sure they are, but just want to be certain. 2. Should I consider upgrading or downgrading any parts, particularly the GPU and CPU? I'm pretty set on those. 3. How difficult is it to build with this case and the other components as a first-timer? Thanks for your help!

If I'm spending around £2000, I'd personally opt for the 5070 Ti instead of the 9070 XT. It's a solid upgrade without significantly blowing the budget.
Thanks for the input! I was hesitating because I heard the difference between the 9070 XT and 5070 Ti isn't huge for around £200 more. Do you really think it's worth the investment?
