I'm looking at building a new PC with the following specs: an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor (5.2GHz Turbo) without a cooler, an ASUS ROG STRIX B650E-F GAMING WIFI motherboard, an ID-Cooling FX360 ARGB water cooler, two 16GB Corsair DDR5 RAM sticks (6000MHz), an MSI GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (16GB), a 1TB Corsair SSD, a 1000W 80 Plus Gold power supply, and a Lian Li O11 Vision Compact case. I mainly want to game at 1440p but I'm also into 4K video editing, so if I can manage to play some games at 4K, that'd be great. I don't have much experience with PC building, so I'd appreciate any feedback on whether this is a solid setup or if there are better options out there. Thanks!

That build looks pretty solid for both gaming and video editing! The RTX 5070 Ti is great for 1440p gaming, and it should handle some 4K games too, just not at ultra settings. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is really powerful for video editing, so you're good there. Just make sure you have a good airflow in your case because it can get hot when pushing those workloads!
Honestly, I’d recommend shopping around a bit. I found a pre-built gaming PC that’s around $2,199.99, which might give you a better deal if you’re open to that. Here’s the link: [PowerSpec G758 Gaming PC](https://www.microcenter.com/product/698879/powerspec-g758-gaming-pc). Just keep in mind the power supply on that one is 850W, which might be a consideration depending on your usage!
Thanks for the suggestion! Yeah, prices in Argentina can be tough, and finding a pre-built like that might be challenging with shipping costs and logistics.
