I recently purchased a new 7800X3D CPU and am seeking guidance on the remaining parts.
I recently purchased an am5 7800X3D CPU and was looking for compatible RAM and a motherboard. I currently have the CPU, five Arctic P12 PWM fans, a Corsair 4000d airflow case, and a 850-watt PSU from EVGA. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Place one of the 120mm Arctic fans inside the rear compartment of this case to serve as an exhaust fan.

Hi, I just purchased a brand new AM5 Ryzen 7800X3D and am unsure which motherboard brand to choose or whether to opt for a B650 or X670. I’m looking for the best features and a reliable BIOS. Could you recommend something? My budget is roughly £200 to £250, and it would really help. Thanks!
It depends on the features you require from the mobo. Usually it includes things like USB ports, type C headers, fan headers, and RGB headers. The Gigabyte board I linked above works well. You only need the X670 if you're short on IO. I recommend asking yourself what you need and comparing the features. That Gigabyte board is a solid starting point.
