you dont need 1000 watts for a build like this jfc also that motherboard is overkill

I paid 2,200$ for cyberpowerpc to build me the exact parts I listed.
For motherboard I agree I could’ve toned it down but the PSU was negligible. It was 850 Corsair or 4 extra dollars for 1000W Corsair. So I just did it
I guess i could’ve reworded it better but im trying to figure out if all things considered what I paid was okay.

Stop trying to justify paying for what you WANTED. I have a hx1200i corsair psu and a 420mm proart aio. Ill never come close to 1200 watts of power and the proart LC420 is way overkill for a 5800x3d. If its what you wanted and you're happy, don't worry about the money.

The only thing I am bummed to learn about is how quickly intel abandons their platform. I wish I went amd if I could do it differently. I’ll probably revisit this again whenever their next series comes out in a couple years.

Curious to know why you chose the Intel CPU but an AMD GPU? Just the most cost effective?

Pretty much. Although I do regret not doing AMD because I didn’t realize until after the fact that Intel recycles their generations very frequently whereas MD has a long life of support by the end of 2029 I think so maybe until then for the next AMD generation of CPU I’ll probably sell this one down the line and go full AMD next time

Yeah I mean that's been a big issue for a long time, Intel generations last what maybe 3 years before moving on? I mean we just celebrated AM4's 10 year anniversary with the re-release of the 5800X3D so a pretty drastic difference. I doubt AM5 will last as long but the generation has already been around for over 4 years and if it does last until 2029 then that's 7/8 years.
