What is the price?

What are you using the system for exactly? Gaming? Twitch streaming? non-gaming uses? What software?

What monitor are you using?

I would strongly recommend changing the case. The front is quite badly obstructed for airflow. The Corsair Crystal 460X will be better, as will even the ICUE 220T

Also NB PCS have a special offer here called the Magma RTX:

It's one of the "Review" specs and is a fixed spec for a discounted price. Very similar spec to yours in most ways but has the 3800x (plus extra free game) and more storage for a lower price. Different case and cooler and SSD.

Not a knock out, but worth being aware of. If sticking with a custom build, change the plastic tomb case. :)
