I would consider looking at a X670E or X870E board due to the extra PCIe lanes seeing how you're running dual M.2 drives.

I haven't thought about that. Thank you! I did a bit reading and eventually came out to ASRock X870E NOVA WIFI.

And I've also changed the case to the montech king 95 pro. Including 6 case fans and also looks beautiful. Read good reviews about it to.

And the GPU Sapphire Nitro+ AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB

As for the last question. The rtx 5080 cost between the 1600 and 2200 euro. Depending on the brand etc. Is the 600 euro more worth it? In my opinion to ask for a single component 1600 or more is ridiculous.

I would stick with the 9070xt. Yes, the 5080 is faster, but not 600 euro faster.

I would use a single 4tb C drive.
Performance will be the same and space management will be easier.

I am not a fan of expensive aio coolers when a good twin tower air cooler will do at half the price.

There is plenty written about water cooling, so right now I'm not going to explain why I think in this case it is unnecessary.

The two 990PRO SSD are different, so as to be clear that there are one with heatsink, and one without. In the revised parts list, i have included 990PRO SSD because i guess that you like it/ prefer it.
