I'm gearing up for my first PC build and I want to make sure everything on my part list is solid. Here's what I've chosen so far:
- AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 4.7 GHz 8-Core Processor
- ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III 360 A-RGB 48.82 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
- MSI MAG B850 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard
- G.Skill Trident Z5 Royal Neo RGB 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-6000 CL26 Memory
- Samsung 990 Pro 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive
- Seagate IronWolf Pro NAS 12 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive
- Fractal Design North XL ATX Full Tower Case
- Corsair RM1000x (2024) 1000 W Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
I've already got a 5070 Ti and Windows Pro. Are there any components here you think I should swap out for something better or cheaper? Also, I'm planning on using just one of the HDDs. Thanks for your help! You can check out my build on PCPartPicker [here](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mhfpLc).

You might want to consider swapping the Liquid Freezer III with the Liquid Freezer III Pro 360. It's almost the same cooler but has better fans and is cheaper too! Check out the link for more details.
Your setup looks pretty solid! Just out of curiosity, what monitor are you planning to use with your build?
I currently have the Alienware AW3420DW.
I was actually gonna do that, I thought they were the same.
