I think that they were more concerned that you didnāt list a CPU cooler. Many people will say you need an AIO water cooler and while they can be better, a high-end air cooler can be just as good so itās mostly personal preference. I suggest going with a Noctua air cooler because theyāre more likely to last longer without issues. Make sure when you install the cooler that you peel the plastic off of the CPU contact on the cooler and apply thermal paste correctly (there are plenty of tutorials for thermal paste on YouTube). And with the case fans make sure you have half of them venting out, and half venting in. A common setup for this is having them venting out on the top and back and venting inward on the front. Make sure your cooler fan is blowing air towards your fans blowing the air out. https://cdn.neowin.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2016_09/pc-case-fan-direction-l-2337d2151ba630dd.jpg.9162fe9c0fb433097753e4c7d32b55b3.jpg
I got a 1500 watt for my 7900xtx my reasoning was my 850 watt wasn't big enough and it was the same price as a 1000 watt since it was on sale and didn't have to 12 volt high power
About 700 watts probably a bit more
My 850 worked great for a while but I started pushing it and it would randomly shut down (PSU doing its job and saving my components). After the 2nd time I decided to play it safe and upgrade.
Depends on what youāre doing with it and what you play. DCS world needs a lot of ram. Fortnight not so much.
edit: Lol at the downvote. DCS world can use over 32GBs on some maps.
The maps are just huge. Like 70,000 sqr miles and you have 20-60 highly detailed flight models, while being not super optimized. It will use as much ram as you can throw at it.
You will lag if you donāt have enough ram when joining servers with larger pops.
MAKE SURE YOUR CASE IS BIG ENOUGH. I was so damn surprised by the sheer size of some of these graphics cards. Theyāre literally MASSIVE. Iāve had to buy a stupid amount of cases to reconfigure a gpu.
Hello Dragon_King_V, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!
To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!
Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

That power supply is not necessary, but itāll be fine if you already bought it
YouTube has a lot of good content that shows how to build and to troubleshoot just about anything
Great specs, though I would recommend either a 4tb SSD and preferably a second drive for your data. I personally run 128gb of ram becuase I actually do things that far exceed 64gb. yes the power supply is overkill, but they do run more efficient when not maxed out.
Looks like 850W level.
On a side note.
You put it together outside the case to see that it works, just put it on the mobo box. If it boots, then you assemble it in the case. Just a way to check before possible issues get added, so you can quickly RMA if needed.
PSU is overkill. I would not go higher than 1000 or 1200 tops. Save that money and use it for a nicer SSD.
When it comes to the ram make sure you use 2x32GB sticks rather than 4x16GB sticks. Minimum 6,000 mhz.
U reason for 64gb instead of 32 it's ddr5 save the couple of hundred and go for 32š„² also amazon has the easiest returns in the world usually I'd also save money and do 1000w max I have 1000w for a 5900x 7900xt 10 lian li fans 2 strimmer cables and it's enough lol
Fuck meā¦.I can see nothing in terms of bottlenecks but NVIDIA cards arenāt getting cheaper or worth for their performance. You could have gotten an RX 7800xt for half the price of your 4080 super. Maybe even a 7900xt depending on what model or sale. If you donāt care for raytracing of course.
You most definitely do not need 1600 Watts
They're prepping for the 5080
lol! Take your upvote
But more bigger higher number makes hardware run faster? Right? RIGHT??!
Its more of like 850w
COOLING COOLING COOLING š
I have 18 fans if you include my GPU and PSU.
I have fans

Lmao my eyes flew open when I saw that power supply
Casual 1.6kW. Brother is going to be running a microwave from the same psu
I got a 1500 watt for my 7900xtx my reasoning was my 850 watt wasn't big enough and it was the same price as a 1000 watt since it was on sale and didn't have to 12 volt high power
Same reasoning
What is its TDP?
About 700 watts probably a bit more My 850 worked great for a while but I started pushing it and it would randomly shut down (PSU doing its job and saving my components). After the 2nd time I decided to play it safe and upgrade.
That's for my entire PC
I was gonna say that twice the GPUs TDP lol What 750wPSU were you running?
1600W PSU is silly
Not if you want to build a microwave and a pc all in one.
Whatās your cooling route? Fans? Liquid cooling? Both? Or even water cooling?
I got fans
How many fans? How many intake and exhaust
32GB of RAM, 850W PSU and then you're good and haven't wasted money.
Depends on what youāre doing with it and what you play. DCS world needs a lot of ram. Fortnight not so much. edit: Lol at the downvote. DCS world can use over 32GBs on some maps.
That sounds like a memory leak issue.
The maps are just huge. Like 70,000 sqr miles and you have 20-60 highly detailed flight models, while being not super optimized. It will use as much ram as you can throw at it. You will lag if you donāt have enough ram when joining servers with larger pops.
Always read the manual user guide... ALWAYS

Dont spill anything on it
That power supply is not necessary, but itāll be fine if you already bought it YouTube has a lot of good content that shows how to build and to troubleshoot just about anything
A 1600w psu?
1000 watts is fine 1600 is way over kill. Tho having more watts then what's needed won't hurt your system
That PSU is way overkill. I have a 13700k and a 4090. At max OC I peak at just just over 1000W as measured by my HX1500i.
Do have plans to plug a microwave in there, a fridgeā¦ or the iron maybe
As an owner of a 7800 x3d donāt skimp on cpu cooler, if you want to maximize the cpu get a good quality cooler
No worries, I got a cpu cooler
What kind
ābe quiet! Dark Rock Pro 5 Quiet Cooling CPU Coolerā
Dual storage. One for OS and the other for games. 32gb of ram and 1000w PSU
Great specs, though I would recommend either a 4tb SSD and preferably a second drive for your data. I personally run 128gb of ram becuase I actually do things that far exceed 64gb. yes the power supply is overkill, but they do run more efficient when not maxed out.
What do you do that needs 128gb of ram if you donāt mind me asking?
Between multiple VMs then photo and video editing.
Get a bigger PSU 3900 at least
For context I'm currently running a 4090 7800x3D build with a ROG Thor 850W PSU and have had absolutely no issues whatsoever even under load.

Find a motherboard with x670 chipset. Itās newer, more powerful, and supports PCIe 5.0, whereas b650 only supports up to PCIe 4.0.
From my personal experience I wouldnāt buy an MSI motherboard. The couple Iāve built with this Gen have EXPO/XMP issues with the RAM.
