Your RAM selection is likely to become a limitation. Consider this setup – the 120mm fan fits inside the back panel for better exhaust performance.

The motherboard has been updated to support higher clock speeds for RAM. The power supply and case have also been adjusted to help balance the cost differences. I appreciate your feedback on the case with USB-C, though I understand the fan noise might be an issue—considering that advice for a better exhaust fan would be wise. Regarding latency, it seems to have a noticeable impact since the CL30 and CL32 are priced similarly. The CPU change was made for reasons such as cost savings or other factors, and prices remain comparable in Europe at the moment.

Would you consider this option now?

Games benefit from minimal latency... the lower it is, the better. The 7600 handles heat better and consumes less power compared to the 7600X, yet delivers performance almost as close.

OK, so CL30 and drop the X?
Thanks for your time!

Thank you for the feedback, but that total is $850 without the graphics card. The $750 card would bring it to $1,000, which is still outside my budget right now.
I chose this option.
Thanks again!

the 4070 super costs 600 USD, not 750.

Not exactly what I was expecting. The price here is roughly 650€ to 700€, which is quite a jump compared to the 509€ (557,93$) it was. It seems like a significant increase. Maybe it's cheaper in the States?
Did you enjoy what I’m heading for in the end?
Thanks again! Have a great day.
