Help Fine-Tuning My PC Build

Hey everyone! I’m planning my next PC build and would love some feedback from the community before ordering parts.

Budget: ~$1,500 USD
Primary Use: 1440p High-Refresh Gaming & Light Video Editing
Country: US (near a Micro Center)


Planned Component List

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
  • Cooler: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE
  • Motherboard: MSI B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI
  • RAM: G.Skill Flare X5 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30
  • Storage: Crucial T500 2TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Super 12GB
  • Case: Corsair 4000D Airflow
  • Power Supply: Corsair RM750e (2023) 750 W 80+ Gold

Specific Questions I Have:

  1. Is the 750W PSU sufficient for this setup, or should I headroom up to 850W?
  2. Are there any physical clearance issues between the RAM and cooler?
  3. Would you swap any parts for better value-for-money alternatives?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
