ASUS TUF Gaming B850M-E WIFI is better than MSI B850M Gaming Plus. Both 8+2+1 power stages but ASUS is 80A versus MSI 60A. ASUS motherboard PCB is 8 layer vs MSI 6 layer.

But MSI motherboard is white. So if you're going for white build.....
ASUS motherboard is black.
Thank for noticing the white motherboard, I thought the motherbaord as black since the pic show white

Based on recommendations this would be better .

@deepblue22 you can choose should be within your new budget. The psu should be tier A but havent check yet.

For extra 300 get 5080, nicer case and a better aio

basically all white means there's all black also for the same parts
My preference is still to finalize the purchase through InvaderPC. Since I lack the knowledge to build the system myself (installing and troubleshooting components), the convenience and peace of mind provided by a professionally built and tested system outweigh the cost savings of a DIY approach.

Does the type of fans matter? I mean putting aesthetic aside, just focusing on the functionality. Im thinking that the money saved from fancy RBG fans could be used to upgrade the GPU choice to a 5080 since the gap from 5070/Ti isnt that much

Get cpu cooler than aio it perform about the same as aio and it is cheaper. For cpu case fan you might not save much and invader sells 1 rgb fan for 10 each

  1. SSD: Capacity & Quality Upgrade. I will ensure the final drive is a 2TB Gen4 NVMe with DRAM (e.g., ADATA XPG GAMMIX S70 Blade or similar), avoiding DRAM-less models.
Emmm do u even understand why people pick dram over non dram for nvme?

Please don't just blindly follow and instead, buy according to your needs. For your use case, a no dramless TLC ssd drive is more than enough.

Both the samsung 990 Evo plus and lexar nm790 are fantastic choices are their price point on Amazon right now.

You want that 1-2 fps increase? If cannot tell, any CL rams will work.

AMD X3D, just go for the standard CL30-32. Got money then go for CL26/CL28.

CL not crucial la.

  1. PSU: Quality Check. I will prioritize a reliable 750W 80+ Gold ATX 3.0 unit and search for a well-reviewed model like the Corsair RM750x, MSI MAG A750GL PCIE5, or Cooler Master GX III 750W. Appreciate any suggestions on this :)
For mid-range gaming PC, 850W should be the baseline going forward because GPU power consumption will only increase over time. Based on the three models you listed, I'd recommend Corsair RMx model over MSI MAG. Cooler Master PSU is like no-no for me.

Shining PC has it. They will sell you 7800X3D + Zotac 5070 Ti for $2650. You're basically paying for a superior motherboard Gigabyte Aorus B850 Elite Ax with 14+2+1 power stages @ 60A. But have to compromise on the RAM, SSD and PSU. In addition, they're located @ Admiralty. Depending on where you live, it may be too far north.

I see mansa have your case not the one i want.
Mansa is my preferred system builder but their prices are more expensive than Invader PC. For example, it's going to be ~$2.7k with Mansa for 7800X3D + 5070Ti combo, with compromises in motherboard, RAM, SSD and PSU.

What do you mean by compromises? Mind elaborating or sharing some examples? Im may be considering Mansa actually.

You just go to Mansa website and configure your customized system by selecting components. You will notice that those default components that don't require top-up $$$ are basically mediocre. For example, motherboard could have low power stages / poor VRM, SSD has relatively lower read/write speeds, RAM has high latency, PSU are those B or C tier list models. To get decent components, have to top up and the eventual price will add up.

I could found the setup in their FB but not the price . The price you state is good but the location is far.

My setup on this

https://www.invaderpc.com/product/specs16/
With some changes
AMD RYZEN 7 7800X3D 4.2GHz 8CORE/16THREAD
ASUS TUF GAMING B850M-E WIFI
Thermalright core vision 360 aio
Team group expert 6000mhz cl30 64gb
ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX™ 5070Ti 16G TRIPLE FAN
ADATA LEGEND 900 PRO 2TB 7400MB/s
Crucial T500 2TB
ASUS ATS-850G 850W 80+ GOLD FULLY MODULAR
lian li o11d mini v2
    
Or this

https://www.invaderpc.com/product/specm61/
The only diff is Asus prime 5080 16 oc

64gb is for my work
My usage is web development , AI LLM, docker ,linux and gaming like BF6

How heavy is your AI LLM? Because the problem with 5080 is the 16gb vram. That's the limiting factor. Even if it's faster than the 5070 ti, it's useless if u can't load it. You can see the vram requirements here.

Basically, u want a GPU with higher capacity vram.

So with that said, between your 2 options, pick the cheaper 5070 ti
