I've finished putting together my high-end PC part list and I'm excited to get started, but since this is my first build, I'd love some feedback from you all. My budget is between $5,000 and $6,000, and I plan to use this setup primarily for gaming, along with streaming movies and general tasks. I'm hoping to avoid upgrades for a long time! Here's my build list: [PCPartPicker Link](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9Yfsgn). Could you let me know if there are any major mistakes or concerns with my choices?

Just a heads-up! If you're not into heavy productivity tasks like 3D modeling or video editing, the 9950X3D isn't really going to give you much more gaming performance than the cheaper 9800X3D. Also, unless you're planning on really pushing your system hard, a 1200W PSU could save you some cash without sacrificing quality.
Your build looks solid overall, but I recommend swapping out the SSD for the Samsung 990 Evo Plus. Also, consider going for 96GB of RAM (48GBx2) if you're planning on some serious multitasking!
You know, both SSDs perform similarly enough that the speed difference isn't a big deal. Plus, 96GB is way overkill for gaming—32GB is more than sufficient!
