Looks like you’ve done some serious planning! The parts you picked are solid, especially that RTX 5090 and the Ryzen 9. Just a thought: why did you go with a Gen4x4 SSD? There might be faster options available depending on your needs. Overall, it's a killer setup!
Thanks for the input! A lot of my research mentioned Gen4x4 being sufficient for gaming, but I'm open to suggestions. What would you recommend instead?
