Hey everyone! I’m planning to build a new gaming PC aimed at 1440p gaming, sticking to a budget between 2000 and 2500 Euro. I’m primarily into strategy and building games like Stormworks, Satisfactory, and GTA V (with GTA VI on the horizon), but I also dabble in shooters like Ready or Not. I’ve put together this part list on PCPartPicker: [PCPartPicker Part List](https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/HXGmjn). I’m looking for any advice on my selection and whether I should consider upgrading to a 5070 Ti. What do you think?

Generally, a 1000W power supply might be overkill for your build. I estimated around 572W for my setup with a similar GPU and am running fine on 750W. Just something to consider that could save you a bit of cash!
Hey! Your part list looks solid. Just a reminder, run your specs through a wattage calculator to see if you really need that 1000W PSU. I’m currently using a 750W with a similar setup and it’s been fine. Also, I have the 5070 Ti, and it handles 1440p gaming like a champ! Totally recommend it if you can find it at a good price.
Definitely consider getting the 7800x3d if you can find it cheaper—might save you some cash. The 5070 Ti is a great GPU; I’m gaming at 60fps in 4k with it, so you’ll be more than good for 1440p gaming! It’s worth the upgrade if your budget allows.
