I'm planning to build a PC with a budget of €2500. I'm considering using a 5080 graphics card and a Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor. Additionally, I want to include 2TB of NVME storage and 32GB of RAM. However, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed with other components I'd need to select. Any suggestions would be really appreciated! Thanks in advance!

No worries! Just put all your components into PcPartPicker; it helps check for compatibility issues. For your build, here are some suggestions:
- **Motherboard**: Look for a B850 board from a reputable brand like MSI or Gigabyte, but avoid Asrock with the 9800X3D due to issues.
- **RAM**: Go for 2 sticks of 6000MHz CL30.
- **Case**: Pick one that looks good to you and fits both the motherboard and GPU. Fractal Design is a solid choice while Lian Li is great for flashier options.
- **Cooler**: A dual tower cooler like the Thermalright PS120 works well, or if aesthetics are a priority, an AIO is cool too.
- **PSU**: An 850W unit that ranks B or higher is nice. I really recommend Seasonic.
Before diving into parts, can you share where you're located? Also, do you have a monitor, or are you considering buying one? If you're going for something nice, OLED might be a great choice!
I'm in Germany and I haven't picked a monitor yet. I'm leaning towards OLED but I'm still unsure about specifics.
Thanks a lot for the tips!
