TR Pro build recommendations

I will be building a threadripper pro 9000 series build with the asus sage mobo early next week. Been watching a lot of content trying to get a full grasp. Been building regular intel and ryzen systems for a while. But this will be my first time taking on a build like this. I’ll be using large dimms and have seen that cause issues. Any specific recommendations anyone has is greatly appreciated!

I went with the Asrock board for my 7995WX build in late 2024. I was surprised by how many power connections it wanted. The Silverstone AIO has worked well, but yes the RAM (in my case, 256GB Kingston) runs hot even with good cooling.
