Hey everyone! I'm gearing up to put together my first gaming PC build this Black Friday, and I'd love some feedback on my components. Here's what I've selected so far; I want to make sure everything works well together, especially for gaming. Check out my list and let me know if you have any recommendations or changes! Thanks!

One thing to consider is whether frequent power outages are an issue for you. If so, a stable UPS might be a good investment to protect your components.
Consider that the 9070 XT performs similarly to your 5070 Ti. For gaming at 1440p, this could be a better bang for your buck. Also, if you're primarily gaming, 32GB of RAM should suffice. Upgrading the motherboard to one with a stronger VRM design might be beneficial for future CPU upgrades too!
Thanks for the tips! I’m leaning towards switching the motherboard and maybe sticking with 32GB of RAM. I’ve heard about liquid cooling but I'm worried about installing it without causing damage.
You might want to switch to a 2TB SSD instead of two 1TB drives. It's usually more efficient and can save you some hassle later on.
What RAM would you recommend then? I'm not an expert, so any advice would be appreciated!
I don't really have outages, but the power grid in my area can be unstable. Learned that the hard way!
