I'd save about £400 of your money, and overall get just as good or a faster PC. Otherwise, you have the fastest PC there is, so what can I say? You're not very worried about budget clearly...

Case
CORSAIR iCUE 5000X RGB MID TOWER GAMING CASE Very similar case, a lot cheaper, and in my view every bit as good
Processor (CPU)
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D Eight Core CPU (4.2GHz-5.0GHz/104MB w/3D V-CACHE/AM5) Actually faster than the 7950X3D in the majority of games
Motherboard
ASUS® ROG STRIX X670E-A GAMING WIFI (AM5, DDR5, PCIe 5.0, Wi-Fi 6E)
Memory (RAM)
32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR5 6000MHz (2 x 16GB)
Graphics Card
24GB NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 4090 - HDMI, DP No point whatsoever in getting the Asus
Graphics Card Support Bracket
NONE (BRACKET INCLUDED AS STANDARD ON 4070 Ti / RX 7700 XT AND ABOVE)
1st M.2 SSD Drive
1TB SOLIDIGM P44 PRO GEN 4 M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD (up to 7000MB/sR, 6500MB/sW)

Morning all. Hope you all good.. Just want to make sure before I go bank and put money in.. Is this build defo good to go ahead with. Anything else you change or not. Only thing I changed is the cooler as it had lcd which I think Is pointless for me as I have temps etc on 2nd monitor

Will the airflow be any good with that case. Would I need to purchase a fan for the rear case or will the be enough fans and cooling with 3 front fans and 3 top fans

Looks spot on. You could maybe consider the MP600 Pro for the second drive, that way you could have 4TB of fast storage and never need to worry about game space.

I think they'll put a rear fan in regardless but it's definitely not necessary.

They sent me a picture to my email.
Notice that the gpu support bracket been fitted. Could I remove that as I have a elgato capture card to install for when I stream console games

Pic they sent me

You can do whatever you want. But you need some support on the gpu as they sag which can eventually break the board

OK thanks. Will have to purchase another support bracket of amazon

There are ones you can get that are upright rather than screwing into the back and running all the way along the card.

Like these


They just sit under the end corner and prop it up that way. The one I’ve linked isn’t a great one, but there are loads of options like that on Amazon, that type may be more appropriate
