Hello! I’m planning to build a new PC after many years with my old and reliable i5 and GTX 1080 Ti. I want to build a system around the new AMD Ryzen 9 9800X3D. So far, the only thing set in stone is the CPU. As a fan of RGB, I'm torn between the NZXT H9 case and the Lian Li O11 Compact. When it comes to fans, I think I prefer Lian Li's offerings, but there are so many models that it’s giving me a headache trying to choose.

I also need help finding a good motherboard and power supply for the build. For the GPU, I’ve decided to wait until early next year when NVIDIA is rumored to release their new series. For CPU cooling, I’d like something with a screen. I’ve used the NZXT Kraken for many years and was happy with it, so I’m considering the new NZXT Kraken Elite. However, I’ve also heard good things about the Lian Li Galahad 2, so I’m undecided there as well.

My budget is around $2500, but I’m willing to go higher depending on the price of the video card.

Thank you

How big of a GPU are you thinking of using?
 
I’m thinking of something like a 4080 Super
I'd look at the Super Flower LeadEX VII XG.

For the motherboard I have a Gigabyte X670E Aorus Pro X with my 9700X and it works really well. Includes 4x M.2 and WiFi 7.
