As in the Title this is my build. I built it from my own moderate knowledge of building. It has run great over the time but it was my first build that I didn't ask for help before hand :) And now after a year and a half I am wondering.... What did I do wrong or better yet what could make it better without building a new one or buying a new GPU :)

Operating System
Windows 11 Home 64-bit
CPU
Intel Core i9 12900KS 31 °C
Alder Lake 10nm Technology
RAM
64.0GB Corsair DDR5-5200 @ 2400MHz (40-40-40-76)
Motherboard
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. PRIME Z790-A WIFI (LGA1700) 37 °C
Graphics
GNV34DBE (3440x1440@144Hz)
LU28R55 (3840x2160@60Hz)
LG ULTRAWIDE (2560x1080@75Hz)
4089MB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti (ASUStek Computer Inc) 50 °C
Storage
1863GB Crucial CT2000MX500SSD1 (SATA (SSD))
238GB Samsung SSD 850 PRO 256GB (SATA (SSD)) 36 °C
931GB Samsung SSD 980 PRO 1TB (Unknown (SSD))
953GB INTEL SSDPEKNW010T8 (Unknown (SSD))
1863GB Samsung SSD 980 PRO with Heatsink 2TB (Unknown (SSD))

Also if I am missing any info above let me know and I will provide it. Really when I think about it the real question is.... What are my Bottlenecks with this PC holding it back (If any) Thank you Toms peeps as always. The CPU is water cooled, and the RAM is

Well, you're missing the most important component of the PC, which powers all of it: PSU.

64.0GB Corsair DDR5-5200 @ 2400MHz (40-40-40-76)
Am i reading this right that you have your 5200 MT/s RAM running at 4800 MT/s?

Also, CAS Latency is high, giving you 16.667ns latency.

6400 MT/s, CL32 RAM with 10ns latency would be much better.
Take your pick: https://pcpartpicker.com/products/m...200,8400&sort=price&page=1&F=6000000,10179480

Just a simple math: 10ns latency RAM can do 3 accesses in 30ns while 16.667ns RAM can do only one access in 30ns. For two accesses, it needs 33.334ns.

931GB Samsung SSD 980 PRO 1TB (Unknown (SSD))
953GB INTEL SSDPEKNW010T8 (Unknown (SSD))
1863GB Samsung SSD 980 PRO with Heatsink 2TB (Unknown (SSD))
"Unknown SSD"? 🤔

All three are M.2 NVMe SSDs. 980 Pro is PCI-E 4.0 (Gen4) and Intel is PCI-E 3.0 (Gen3) drive.

What did I do wrong or better yet what could make it better
What i'm also interested, is the build pics. Since i'd like to see the cable management (if any).
You can upload pics to e.g www.imgur.com and share them here.
