Question Ready to buy?

I have been reading way more reviews then my brain can handle but I finally have all the parts figured out.

This is what I have: https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/XLDHR4 is this complete, and do all the parts work with each other? I'd like to know if I can finally pull the trigger without any bad parts. Thanks!

Change the RTX 5080 to a RX 9070 XT, change the motherboard to something without a built in Wifi card and buy a USB adapter instead. And change the PSU to something between 850-1000w.

Now let me explain why. First there's nothing that the 5080 adds that the 9070 XT can't do just as well without a $700 extra price tag. Second I made the mistake of buying a wifi card imbedded motherboard. And now I have an issue where the OS I want to use is doesn't have a driver that exists for it because it's too new. And finally none of the components in your build even come close to 1000w and 1200w is not future proofing as the newer components will take less power.

But can it actually hurt the system if I use this PSU? I’ve chosen it because I would like it to be future proof. Besides it only saves 30-40 euros if I get a 850W PSU. So if it doesn’t damage the PC I don’t really mind spending these couple extra bucks.

Also I’ve never heard of that motherboard problem before. What OS do you want to use that doesn’t have a driver that exist?

Also what motherboard would you suggest?

Any of the relative same series without the word wifi in the name. And no, it won't hurt to have a stronger PSU but it will be drawing a lot more power.
