I'm building my first PC and could really use some advice and feedback on the parts I've chosen. You can check out the list of components I'm considering here: [PC Part Picker Link](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/68nRRV). I already have the graphics card and the Hyte case, but I'm unsure about the reliability of the other parts. To be honest, I've been stressing out a bit over all the research! Any thoughts?

Honestly, $700 for a 5070 is pretty steep! You might want to look at the 9070xt Gigabyte OC, which is only $730 and offers much better performance. Just a heads-up, with the 7800x3d CPU, you may notice your GPU bottlenecking your performance in gaming, especially depending on the resolution and settings you use.
My boyfriend got the 5070 for MSRP, so we can return it if it's not great. I heard the 5070 is good for streaming, though I did think about the 9070xt!
