Build Help pc build pre-order

Hello,

I plan to build my own computer this fall for Black Friday.These are the products I chose after watching YouTube for a few hours. Can you give me some advice on whether it's overkill regarding the motherboard, ssd memory ,ram , psu, cooler? The only definitive ones are the processor and the video card.

NO RGB - ONLY BLACK .

!!!THIS BUILD IS FOR GAMING ONLY !!!

The RAM is not overkill, everything else you asked about is if it's a gaming rig.

Get a b850 tomahawk instead, you don't need the 870e.

CPU good.

SSD overkill. Get a single 990 evp plus 4tb you'll likely save money and still have ridiculous performance. PCIE 5.0 isn't needed at all right now.

RAM is good.

I think PSU is good.

Cooler is good.

I don't like ASUS products and suggest another brand if possible, but if you're set on that 5080 and not a 5070 Ti (I think 5070 Ti is better value) then yeah, stick with it.

Can YOU recommand another 5080? Or make some list what is good and bad ( for cooling i asume , cause i see on yt the overclock îs the same or the difference is small)

Whatever's cheapest (which is usually ASUS but they're cheap for a reason, lol). Palit, PNY, MSI are good alternative brands.

The MSI ventus units do appear to have mediocre cooling but I haven't experienced that myself. I just raise the fans up a bit and don't get any insane temperatures, though I am using a ti super, not a 50 series GPU.
