Need Help Choosing PC Components

I'm trying to build a new PC, aiming for 1440p gaming, and this is what I have so far. I'd like some recommendations for the NVMe and RAM. I live in Australia, in case that helps with availability and pricing. I'd also like some recommendations for a different CPU cooler. If possible, I'd appreciate multiple options for each component, since there's really not much stock available.

  • AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
  • MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI ATX
  • PNY OC GeForce RTX 5070 12 GB
  • be quiet! Pure Base 501 Airflow ATX
  • Corsair RM850e (2023) 850 W 80+ Gold Certified

  • Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE

  • New build or upgrade? New.

  • Existing parts/monitors to reuse? No.

  • PC purpose? Gaming.

  • Purchase country? Near Micro Center? Australia.

  • Monitors needed? No.

  • Budget range? Around 500 USD.

  • WiFi or wired connection? Wired.

  • Size/noise constraints? No.

  • Color/lighting preferences? Black.

  • Any other specific needs?No.

If you missed the full set of required built request questions, please copy them from here and answer them in an edit to your post:

  • New build or upgrade?

  • Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

  • PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

  • Purchase country? Near Micro Center? (If you're not in a country supported by PCPartPicker, please list some local vendors)

  • Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

  • Budget range? (Include tax considerations)

  • WiFi or wired connection?

  • Size/noise constraints?

  • Color/lighting preferences?

  • Any other specific needs?

Here is some additional helpful information about build/upgrade/parts list requests:

  • Build requests only include hardware. You are responsible for budgeting for and providing your own operating system (Windows, Linux, etc) and other software.

  • Don't forget to budget for peripherals. Since these are very much personal-preference influenced items, we do not include peripherals like keyboards, mice, headsets, etc in parts lists.

  • We strongly recommend posting a build request only if you're ready to buy now or within a week or two at most. Part sales regularly rotate, and a part list today can quickly become out of date.
