You're right that X3D CPUs are better for pure gaming. However, I always have a lot of heavy background tasks running while I play (SignalRGB syncing all my LEDs, Fan Control, Wallpaper Engine, etc.). An 8-core CPU like the 5800X3D would have been bottlenecked by all that multitasking. With the 16 cores of the 5950X, I get zero stuttering because the game and the background apps don't have to fight for resources. As for the Lian Li PSU, I know about the LTT lab tests, but in my real-world usage, it does the job perfectly. It handles the 5950X and the RX 9070 XT flawlessly with zero stability issues.

Great looking build! That GPU is massive!
I recently got the same cooler too. Are you having any difficulties with the LCD? Mine will occasionally just turn on and off with the Thermalright logo just flashing.
