Your build appears fine as it is. I just want to mention that noise can vary from person to person—some might notice the motor ticking in a fan, while others don’t. You could try replacing the fans with models like Noctua or Be Quiet!. Also, multi-GPU configurations seem outdated...and honestly, it’s not worth mentioning.

Premium components delivering a significant boost. A noticeable 60%+ improvement in performance with only a 10% price rise. The 14700K surpasses the 7800X3D by about 15-20% in tasks while maintaining solid gaming results. The RTX4090 offers a 40%+ gain over the RTX4080S in gaming and a much larger edge in productivity.
I strongly suggest investing a bit more for such a substantial performance increase. Definitely worth it.
If you really need your PC immediately because the previous one stopped working, then definitely wait. A massive generation change is approaching with the RTX5000 series and similar impressive improvements (about 70% more performance on RTX5090 compared to RTX4090). These are expected on next-gen AMD processors within about a year, by the end of this year. It would be ideal if you schedule your build after their launch.
Thank you for this suggestion. I wasn't aware... but yes, I'll delay it then.
My setup is sufficient for gaming right now, though a bit laggy for AI tasks (work...). It includes an RTX 2070 SUPER and an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X.
Appreciate the alternative options!
