I'm looking to future-proof my new PC build, as I typically keep my PCs for about 5-7 years. I've linked my part list, and I'm wondering if anything seems excessive, particularly my RAM and power supply decisions. I've currently got 32GB of RAM and often use 20-26GB, so I'm considering upgrading to 64GB to handle new RAM-heavy games and to run simulator games in the background. Also, is 1000W too much? I read that I should aim for 1.5x the wattage from PC Part Picker, which would put me around 900W. Any suggestions or better ideas? Thanks!

You're not overdoing it; it's more of a luxury upgrade! Just grab a single 4TB SSD like the SN850X, which is actually a bit cheaper compared to what you might be considering. Plus, keeping a couple of m.2 slots open is always good for future upgrades!
Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely look into that 4TB option; I thought it was pricier.
