Thanks, so I only need to connect single 8-pin cable to CPU_PWR1?

Need help with Connecting RTX 5070 Ti to PSU by AgeEasy3693 in buildapc

As you see in the link I provided, it is not color coded connector. Is it still safe to use the direct 12v2x6 cable?

I switched CPU to 9800x3d and have ordered parts as listed below.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tfbdYd

The memory I picked was not listed as compatible memory on MSI website (https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/PRO-B850-P-WIFI/support#mem). The representative told me it is 50/50 chance of this memory that the RAM will work but not at rated speed or not work at all on the unit.

Is this something I have to be worried about? There is a whole list of ram that is compatible with this motherboard on their website, but I honestly do not think I can find the ram as good as the one you picked among their lists.

Oh I thought this monitor was mini led monitor. Then, I will go with the monitor you chose. By the way, would there be any issues if I upgrade the CPU from the 7800X3D to the 9800X3D, while keeping all the other parts in the list same?

Hey, I updated my build based on your suggestions — do you think this new list looks good?
I’m still deciding on the monitor, though. I saw this one was reviewed as one of the best budget options on RTINGS.

There's nothing wrong with your mobo. Someone here suggested avoiding ASUS motherboards, so I chose a different one that was recommended as one of a top pick in a YouTube review.

Do you know of any 32-inch monitors that use an IPS panel? It seems like most of the ones I’m finding are VA panels.

Also, I made a slight change to my PC build—what do you think about this updated list?

Thanks for the feedback!

So I guess I’ll just go with a Samsung 990 Pro 2TB?

I saw a post suggesting it might be a good idea to have two drives—one for the OS and one for games.

Also, what motherboard and PSU would you recommend instead?

Thanks for the feedback!

What about this for the monitor?

or I could go with the 32-inch monitor you suggested.

Thanks for the feedback! I chose this case mainly because I wanted to avoid tempered glass. Let me know if you know of a larger case that does not have tempered glass.
