I'm building my very first own PC and came up with this configuration. What is your opinion about it? Is it enough 850w of power supply or should be more?

Not planning to buy the GPU yet as the prices are crazy. But 5070 ti is my first option.

RX 9070XT is the one you should get.

I tend to add a second SSD to the build, one that's smaller in capacity for the OS, app's and launchers. While the larger drive is meant to be a gaming library drive, provided your system is meant primarily for gaming.

Have you purchased any parts yet? What will your computer mainly be used for? What country are you located in, and what is your budget?
