Welcome to the forums, newcomer! At face value, the parts will go with each other though IMHO, you should look at a higher wattage, higher quality PSU since the RTX 3000 series were notorious for having high transient load spikes. Why are you investing in AM4 when you should be able to go with an AM5 platform...? Users are advised to stylize their thread with info asked of in this thread; *How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice* How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice First off, respect where respect is due - this is an adaptation of the Animal's *How To Ask For New Build Advice* Sticky. I created this because there's a lot of posts nowadays asking for upgrade advice both on here and on the CPU forums, and I feel... forums. to help lend us some insight on your build and the community will chime in with worthwhile suggestions. Moved thread from CPUs section to Systems section.

The 3070 is an unusual option here. $600 is a poor deal. I don't like the 5070's value, but you can get them for $550 and it clearly offers a big improvement over the 3070. If you're okay with performance similar to the 3070, a 9060 XT 16 GB is readily available for under $400.

850w is acceptable, but you could go even more powerful.
The power supply will only consume the amount it needs, no matter its maximum capacity.
However, I would opt for a higher-quality PSU. Try to find one with a 7-year warranty or longer.
Regarding the processor, you get what you pay for.
Everyone has a budget.
