Asked By PixelPal7 On

Hey everyone! I'm diving into my first-ever PC build and I've got a proposed list of components that I want some feedback on. My setup includes the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D paired with an RTX 5070. I'm curious if this combination works well together and fits my budget of around €2000. Here's what I'm looking at:

- **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
- **Cooler:** NZXT Kraken 360 AIO
- **Motherboard:** Asus TUF GAMING B650M-PLUS WIFI Micro ATX (AM5)
- **RAM:** Corsair Vengeance 32 GB (2x16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL28
- **Storage:** Samsung 990 Pro 2TB NVMe SSD
- **GPU:** Asus PRIME OC GeForce RTX 5070 12 GB
- **Case:** Zalman P30 MicroATX Mini Tower
- **PSU:** Corsair RM750e V2 (750W 80+ Gold fully modular)

For cooling, I swapped out the Zalman P30's stock fans for 6 NZXT F120P fans and I'm also using an ARCTIC fan hub for better cable management.

I have a few questions:
1. Is the Corsair RM750e V2 PSU enough power for this build?
2. Will the NZXT F120P fans keep the Zalman P30 cool?
3. Are there any alternative builds I should consider that could give similar or better performance?
4. Any advice for a beginner on cable management and optimizing fan curves in a Micro ATX case?

Thanks a ton for your insights!

You might want to swap out that AIO cooler for a quality air cooler; the temperature difference isn't huge, and it'll save you some money. You can use that extra cash to bump your PSU to an 850W for added stability.

You can definitely squeeze in an RTX 5070 Ti on that budget! Check out this list for components that perform just as well:

Does this new build still work with the Zalman P30 case?

Consider downgrading the AIO and investing in a better GPU, like the 9070xt. It's a much smarter choice for gaming performance without straining your budget too much.
