Hey everyone! I'm gearing up to build my first gaming PC, and I have a budget around $2000, but I don't necessarily plan to spend the entire amount. After doing some research, I've decided to go with the 9070 XT paired with the 9800X3D, as it seems like a solid combo for the price. I've shared versions of my build on here before and have made some adjustments based on feedback. Now, I'm wondering if there's anything else I should consider or if all the parts will work together smoothly before I make the purchase. I really appreciate any insights! Thanks!

Your build looks good! You've got some solid choices there. Just make sure the RAM height won't interfere with your CPU cooler, as that can be an issue sometimes.
I took a look at your build, and it's nice, but I made a few tweaks to optimize it for performance:
- Replaced the 9800X3D with a 7800X3D since the former might be overkill.
- Upgraded the SSD for faster speeds.
- The RAM you’ve picked is a bit overpriced. Here’s my refined version: [PCPartPicker](https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/PTyB3w)
It seems pretty decent, but I’d suggest reallocating some budget from the PSU and RAM to upgrade your SSD. A high-end build deserves a high-performance SSD, like the Samsung 990 Pro. That could really enhance your game load times!
Good point! Always double-check those measurements. Don't want any surprises once everything is assembled.
