Here’s a quick review of your setup.
Please let me know if you forgot anything.
The GPU and power supply are from your existing PC, and you’re planning to upgrade them once the 50 series model arrives.

Cl30 6000 is the optimal choice for AMD, offering improvements with higher models but with minimal gains. Be mindful of the case; the Arctic Freezer III is significantly thicker than the II, making it a bulky option. I own both 420mm freezers II and III, yet they often don’t fit properly in cases designed for 420mm due to the 65mm thickness of the radiators and fans, which can lead to problems.

The PSU is from 2019. I'm waiting to see concrete power draw info from 50 series cards before I upgrade it.
As for the SSD, I have 4TBs now and after 3 years I've only used about 3TBs. Is there an advantage to have multiple SSDs I'm not seeing? I can always buy another if needed.
For the RAM it seems that CL30 6000 is the sweet spot for AM5.

I followed your suggestion and chose a 360mm. Online research indicates a 420 should work, but I'll opt for a 360 just in case.
