Hey!
Why do you need a liquid series. It has not got better performance compared to PCs and they are hard to maintain and cost

Closed loops are only beneficial for high end rendering or scientific workstations.

There's no use for them anymore outside of that really, you pay exorbitant amounts of money for zero benefit other than looks. AIO coolers are so efficient these days, there's just no benefit from a closed loop.

I would strongly advise not bothering, it's a complete waste of money.

You asked for feedback. We’re not being negative, just telling you you’re paying a lot of money for no benefit. It’s reality I’m afraid, it’s a poor investment.

If you're going all out I think it could be better optimized in the CPU and storage department.

Zen 3 has a significant boost in gaming performance so you should opt for the 5900X.

The premium for 2TB PCIe 4 M.2 SSDs is pretty ridiculous and they don't offer much of an improvement if any in general game load times.
You're better off having a very fast boot M.2 SSD, but maybe keep it at 500GB, 1TB max. Then a 2TB SATA SSD for games, and a HDD for videos/photos.
