You're advised to stylize your thread with information as shown in this thread;
for us to gain context to your build and if there are avenues to optimize, improve or change.

As of this moment all we see is a parts list, and we don't know how much you're paying for them. At face value, the build is fine but you should look into a DDR5-6000MHz dual channel ram kit.

Few things to keep in mind:

The new X870 / X870E mobos are launching in July. They come equipped with the latest USB 4.0 ports which are backwards compatible and would prove useful in the days to come. Might want to consider this instead of the B650 depending on your budget and you needs. I went for the Aorus elite B650M for the pcie 5.0 M.2 ssd support.
Look for 14 phase min and 60 A caps and above VRM design in mobos.

CPU - 7800X3D is a great choice. From what we saw in AMD's keynote, the 7800X3D seems to be the gaming CPU king untill the 9000X3D CPUs come out. You might get a small price reduction once the 9000 series launch in July.

Ryzen needs fast rams. Get 6000mhz CL30 or 6400mhz CL32 ram kit.

You really dont need liquid cooling for 7800X3D. A good air cooler like the Thermlaright Phantom spirit is more than enough. If you do go for air cooling, get low profile rams like the Team group Expert or G.Skill Flare/ripjaws series.

2tb might be the best option cost and capacity wise. I would suggest the SN850X or Team group MP44 or Lexar NM790 to name a few.

Case - The 216 is a great choice!

GPU - Decent GPU model

PSU - look for an ATX3.0 tier A PSU. Any 850W model from the list would be a good choice.

For RAM, Can I get KINGSTON FURY BEAST DDR5 32GB (2X16GB) 6000MHZ CL36 instead?

I would suggest low latency ram. CL30/32
CPU - Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Mainboard - GIGABYTE B650M AORUS ELITE (REV. 1.3)
Graphic Card - PNY GEFORCE RTX 4070 TI SUPER 16GB VERTO OVERCLOCKED TRIPLE FAN
RAM - G.SKILL TRIDENT Z5 NEO RGB 32GB CL32 6000MHz (AMD EXPO) F5-6000J3238F16GX2-TZ5NR
Storage - WD BLACK SN850X 2TB
Case - LIAN LI LANCOOL 216 RGB (BLACK)
Power Supply - THERMALTAKE TOUGHPOWER GF3 850W GOLD - 850W 80 PLUS GOLD (ATX)
Water Cooling - Thermlaright Phantom spirit

I might go with this, Is this a good spec for 2K? :)

You might want to go for ATX mobo. the 216 is an ATX case, it will look empty with a small mobo.

if you want to go for Aorus elite, go for V1 version of the ATX mobo. They nerfed the VRM in V2.

the RGB rams might be covered by the front fan of the cooler. You might want to go for low profile non RGB ram.
