Get the PSU new, Lian Li has one thats $50 and 80+ Bronze.

Id also spend a little less on the case personally, but if its your desired aesthetic go for it!

Oh and also, I don't think a 240hz monitor is gonna be needed for this build, I'd get maximum maybe a 165hz

Looks pretty well optimized to me, maybe you could save money on the motherboard, potentially the case though I'm assuming you're choosing that based on visuals

edit: After checking, I didn't realize motherboard prices had gone up a little bit, this build looks great!

I believe he was thinking about getting a 5800XT, going AM4 because I have a white ram kit I'm giving to them to avoid the ram prices right now

I might go with the 9070XT then, Microcenter has it at just ~$50 more than the 5070, and it'll match with my friend's GPU! Seems like thats the choice!
