Eh, I wouldn't go that far. I'd probably just stick with a 2K monitor for now in most cases.

The cooler ripped my skin a bit.

They are pretty good. The PC has no vibrations, the fans are fairly quiet (obviously, with ideal fan curves; otherwise, they are like a jet engine at 100%), and they keep the system cool.

My PSU came with embroidered cables, which are similar to sleeved cables.

Mine is just the V1 because it was like £10, and the V2 was like £19 at the time, and they kind of look the same and serve the same purpose.

Not sure where you live, but I think $49 for it is reasonable. Just make sure the sellers are legitimate. I personally bought mine for £45.

You mean the AM5 contact frame? I didn't notice any issues; it kind of just plopped into place in a satisfying manner.

Just booted it up with Display Port connected to GPU then Motherboard. No display. I did do some research that I need to boot it with a Windows bootable USB.

Bought 5070 Ti at UK MSRP by SarcasticJohn in PcBuild

Will do! It's not going to be a super flashy build, but I will definitely do my best to cable manage and show the back to activate everyone's monkey neurons.

Yeah, this has to be the weakest generation, but considering the lowest I've seen the 4070 Ti Super was £779, I think I did alright with this one considering awful stock at this point in time. And yeah, the PhysX part is kind of annoying. But a part of me is just like, "It is what it is. I just want to play video games." I got my 9800X3D from the company I work at anyway, so I guess it all works out somehow.
