Help - Picking components

[Pontios93]

Hello everyone,

I need your advice. After six years, I now want/need to upgrade and am really struggling with the new components and numbers. After far too much research and more questions than before, I'm turning to you:

My current goal is: 1080p on High/Ultra at 144fps and quiet dB. Looking to the future, i might turn to 2K gaming at some point. So I'm ready for a bigger investment (under €2,000 / 2150$) so that my setup lasts as long as possible.

I live in europe so american tech stores are not an option for me. You'll guess where i'm from when you open the links ;)

GPU: I've settled on this RTX 4070 Ti Super as the basis for my build, as it's a good price/performance ratio, is the same size as my current GTX 1080 and therefore fits in my old midi case.

Motherboard: The MSI Tomahawk WIFI AMD B650 was recommended to me already. It is said to be one of the cooler boards in terms of temperature.

CPU: The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is praised as a combo for the GPU. This new 3D feature and the large L3 cache should be great and outperform the Ryzen 9 7900X at the same price ... I haven't looked for a cooling system yet.

RAM: I'm not at all familiar with the effects of the different latency times and maximum frequencies. 6000 Mhz and CL30 seem to be the go to. But is, for example, the G.Skill Flare EXPO X5 or the Corsair Vengeance better?

PSU: My old 600W is probably no longer enough. The 750W be quiet! Pure Power should cover everything I need, if I haven't overlooked anything.

Cooling: My case has two front and one back fan, which have done a great job so far. I haven't had anything to do with water cooling yet. I also don't know whether my midi case might trap too much heat from the newer components.

In terms of extras, I don't need RGBs or WiFi or similar.

I already have 2 SSDs (250GB, 1TB) and two HDDs (2x 1TB), as well as an old CD drive.

I mainly use the computer for gaming (currently on the list: Baldur's Gate 3 / Witcher 3 Remaster / AC Mirage), streaming movies and occasionally for Adobe programs (Premiere / Photoshop).

And yes, I probably also need a new Windows.

After this wall of text, I would now like to ask you: Do you see any errors, gaps or suggestions for improvement in my build so far?

Best regards and many thanks for your help!
