I'm aiming for a high-performance PC that can handle 4K gaming and last for years to come. I'm located in Latvia and my budget is around 2200-2300 euros. My current part list comes to 2311 euros. Here's what I have so far:
- PNY GeForce RTX 5080 Overclocked 16GB GDDR7
- AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor at 4.7 GHz with 96 MB L3 cache
- ASUS TUF Gaming B650-PLUS Motherboard for AMD AM5 socket
- Kingston Fury Beast, DDR5, 32 GB, 6000MHz, CL30
- Samsung 990 PRO 2TB M.2 PCI-E x4 Gen4 NVMe SSD
- SeaSonic Focus GX ATX 3 850W power supply
- Lian Li LANCOOL 207 Digital ARGB case
- Lian Li Lancool 207 Front filter
- Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB cooler
- Thermalright TL-C12C-S 120 mm fan
Do you see any flaws or recommendations in this setup?

I’d recommend switching to the Gigabyte X870 motherboard and considering the Aqua Elite V6 or Warframe Pro cooler instead. It would really elevate your build!
One small recommendation: consider using a separate SSD for your OS. It isn’t a must, but it can help with load times.
If longevity is your focus, I’d suggest considering the Zotac 5080 AMP Extreme Infinity. I recently got one and it's performed wonderfully! Besides, I've seen it on sale in my area at a better price than the PNY. The Zotac has better cooling and less noise too, plus it looks fantastic!
Have you got some stats to back up your choice for the Zotac? It costs more than the PNY, so I'm curious. Also, can the Montech PSU fit in the Lian Li 207 case?
That's interesting about the cooling. Could you share more details on comparisons between the two cards?
Your list looks solid overall; I'd say go for it! It should deliver great performance for your gaming needs.
Just a heads up, some B650 boards may need a BIOS update to work with the Ryzen 9000 series. If possible, go for the B850 instead.
Could you elaborate on why those components would be better? I'm intrigued!
