Hey folks! I'm finally ready to upgrade my gaming setup after over a decade. My game backlog is massive, and it's time to build a new rig specifically for games like KCD2 and Battlefield 6. I'm looking to spend around 1600 to 1700 EUR, but I'm a bit out of touch with the latest hardware and want to make sure my build is solid. I have some concerns about the power supply being only 650 W and if there's anything I could optimize for better performance. Here's the build I have so far, and I'm eager for your thoughts on potential incompatibilities or flaws that I may not be aware of!

Your build looks pretty good, but here are a few suggestions for optimizing it:
- Consider switching to a cheaper and more efficient CPU cooler.
- You might want a motherboard that’s B850 for future GPU upgrades.
- The RAM could be faster, which can help with performance too.
- Definitely look for a better power supply that can handle more wattage. Here’s a build I recommend: [link to recommended parts]
Thanks for the input! Would you recommend changing the motherboard again if I decide to swap the Radeon RX 9070 XT for a 5070 Ti?
