[SOLVED] 12700k/3090 corsair

Solution
Overpaying on that ram. For a bit more, you could get a 64gb kit. Corsair HX is a nice PSU, but an RMx saves you some money to put elsewhere, and is still a great PSU. You can get a 3090 for quite a bit less too, with very little performance difference. You are wasting 500 euro on a virtually no performance increase.

I tend to steer clear of threads that ask for ratings since they mean nothing unless we're on YouTube. I can however offer suggestions on what to improve. The build looks fine but you've only got one SSD in that entire build. I'd add a secondary SSD that's larger in capacity for the game library or pick a smaller capacity SSD to have your OS and (launcher)app's on it. As for the ram, why not go for a 2x16GB DDR4-3600MHz ram kit as opposed to going with lower capacity sticks?

Do you mean lower the latency? From 18 to 16? I have a 2 tb 980 pro in my own build at. Im gonna swap em.
