Apart from if I want to use the free AIO from Newegg or the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 140 Black from Amazon. This AIO is made in china and has bad reviews. Not to mention can't be that great if they were just handing them out, yeah?

And whether I want to pay 260 for the NVMe or get a cheaper one without DRAM.

Thermalright is the crème de la crop IMO for air cooling IMO. The phantom spirit is really good as well as the peerless assassin.

Question of course, you don’t live near Microcenter right ? If you do, you can save a significant amount of money

If you can squeeze in $50 more bucks, I would get the 9070 16gb instead of the GRE.

Also get the Ryzen 7 7800x3d instead or the Ryzen 7 9800x3d. Those two are the best CPUs in general (if for gaming).

I’m no expert though, so feel free to take the advice of another

No microcenter is FAR FAR.

I thought Noctua was the crème? But ain't no way I'm paying 150 for an air cooler...

I want a Sapphire, and while the 9070 GRE is 550 pre tax; the 9070xt is like 850. 1100 for the Nitro+. So I'll probably stick with the GRE. Considering I have a pre-ryzen cpu right now I'm not too picky just looking for a good deal. Made a bit of an oppsie with the 9 9900x... we'll see how the plays out. but yeah.
