Thank you for your input!
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
Consider exploring a B850 chipsetted board, avoiding ASRock boards and opting for one with a robust VRM layout.
This depends on your game installation size and the number of games in your library.
I’d configure all fans to intake and keep the rear empty to maintain positive air pressure, then check your temperatures.
This site and most users are based in the USA; since you’re in Iceland, please note your preferred purchasing site so we can understand your access options. Brand and product availability may differ by region. Deepcool isn’t allowed in the US, for example, while pricing on other components might not be ideal.
I’d consider the RX 9070 XT or RTX 5070 Ti if they match the GPU listed above.
Moved the thread from the Memory section to the Systems section.
Thank you for the feedback! I'll check the b850s. What model would you suggest? This is the platform I rely on for buying all my components (https://vaktin.is/index.php?action=price...lay&cid=11). I need to know the cooler I'm looking at: https://tolvutek.is/Tolvur-og-skjair/Ihl...566.action
