I might want a 1000W PSU just for extra headroom, but otherwise your build looks fine.

The key seller sites exist in, at best, a legal gray area, and the forum staff have deemed advice on them to be covered by the "no advice on how to do piracy" rule, so we can't help you.
 
The only absolutely 100% "safe" way to buy a copy of Windows is from Microsoft for full price. 

The header is somewhere in the bottom right corner of your motherboard ... in the picture, it's under the video card  and somewhere below that heatsink which has ASRock written on it. 
 
The headers are pretty much standardized, should be the same pinout as on other motherboards from Asrock, so you can use the manual linked above to inspire yourself
 
For example from page 15 : 

and page 29 zoooms it out : 
 


 
 
LEDs  care about polarity - if you insert it the wrong way, nothing bad will happen, but the led won't light up. So you can just turn off the PC and flip the connector so that the wires are the other way around. But traditionally, plugs should be inserted with the text on the outside, if there's any label or something printed on the plug. 
 
The button / switches (power switch , reset switch)  don't care about polarity , it's a momentary buttons, you connect the two pins together when you press button. So it doesn't matter which way you put the connector in. 
 
Don't forget to connect the power to your video card and your CPU and don't forget to make the absolute noob mistake of not having spacers between the case and motherboard (most cases have spacers pre-applied - the motherboard bottom should not touch the case, and spacers should only be under motherboard screw holes.
 

-Moved to Graphics Cards-

You can drop a pin on Google Maps and share it with other people, that might be the easiest way.

Then maybe a 3060ti, but otherwise the rest of the system would be the same.  The new AMD encoder is very good too, and the 6800xt is way faster in  all games, but that's for you to decide.  If you wanted a 5700x instead of a 5600, your games would all be the same but you may see slight benefit in render times for video production.  

You might have some misconceptions about GPU bottlenecking.
 
Here you go;
 
Instead of spending so much on the CPU, get a bigger monitor. 

No, LTT Won't fix it.
 
Contact the guy you bought it from.  Get a copy of the reciept.  Then RMA it.
 

Thanks for the help! Reading the manual I discovered that little things was just a clip...
Here's a video that helped me:

Yea I was feeling bad before seeing a card I paid $1200 for selling for as low as $400-$500 on ebay. But with mine now dying I guess it was a blessing. 30 series here I come!

This irked me a little bit as well. Transparency is one of the huge reasons why I started migrating from Google to Proton.

That sounds fine to me. Worst that'll happen is you just have to reconfigure your boot order in BIOS.

Your motherboard manual should have instructions you can follow.

Your motherboard manual should have instructions you can follow.

Doesn't clear the legal reasons. If there's a requirement that a remote worker be in a certain country, there is most likely a hard reason for it. Legal, taxes, something of that sort. 

Usually there are legal/NatSec reasons for this requirement. Please don't recommend this to your friend if will get them in deep trouble.

-Thread moved to Troubleshooting-

They work well with a mac, basically the same way as windows. Windows and mac os all use the same protocol for network filecopes, so there won't be an issue.
 
This is a nas, so it connects over the network to the computer, so there is no direct attached cable.

I recall something like this happening back when the 2080Ti was new, found this whole article on Gamers Nexus discussing it: https://www.gamersnexus.net/guides/3394-rtx-2080-ti-artifacting-failure-analysis-crashing-black-screens
 
Typically artifacting is a clear sign of a dying graphics card, and there's not much to be done. Are you by chance still covered by the manufacturer warranty?

1. Audio drivers will be good to have, even if you're not using the audio jacks. Up to you, though.
2. Correct.
3. You should have the latest chipset driver. If you have an AMD APU, get the APU driver. If you're not using an APU, then you will need a dGPU as there are no Ryzen chips that aren't APUs with integrated graphics, and your motherboard HDMI ports will be useless.
4. The basic Windows 11 driver will be fine, but you may want to update it in the future. In this case, get the Realtek LAN driver.
5. Cool.
6. Don't get Gigabyte's software. Just don't.
7. I wouldn't worry about this one.
8. Bandwidth control is probably just to optimize your bandwidth for playing games. I wouldn't worry about it either.

Before I moved to a different state, my Micro Center was an hour away(with good traffic). Now, I live 30 minutes with bad traffic from my local Micro Center. I'm amazed that I don't spend more time in there than I do.
 
Glad to see them expanding. Micro Center is probably my favorite store of all time.

Doesn't seem like a terrible company, although I might venture to guess that it may be a little over the heads of us mortals, as the service is aimed more at corporations and businesses.
 
I like their stance against fraud, I'm just not sure how relevant it would be to this community. Most of the people here just need MFA, a password manager, Malwarebytes, sometimes a good VPN, and common sense to be safe online.
 
Sumsub isn't about cryptocurrency(although they do list it as a selling point), they're about fraud prevention. Fraud prevention can definitely extend to NFTs and cryptocurrency, but that's not the main drive behind the company.

Wild guess: The extension card isn't bootable, it's just a "dumb" card, and lacks the chipset to make it bootable

So it seems the idea behind it is if you want to sign up to a website such as say an online gambling website or a crypto exchange, instead of that website handling the ID Verification SumSub will do it and just pass along the ID Verified status to the website. The idea in principal isn't necessarily bad. Having lots of different websites storing personal information on you isn't particularly a good thing and for the businesses setting up those systems and the red tape can be a significant hurdle. However, if you're having one trusted platform doing all of the verification then you really need to trust them. In order to be verified you're handing over a lot of sensitive personal information, including name, address, date of birth, phone number, ID documentation, biometrics (face scanning), and more. Basically everything somebody would need to commit identity theft and fraud. Even if SumSub are completely ethical there is still the potential for data breaches - just look at what happened to LastPass. Having all of your critical personal information and identity documents exposed could be catastrophic.
 
I'm also curious whether services that are legally required to store and/or verify personal information of their users such as financial/crypto exchanges or gambling websites are even allowed to use third party identity verification services or if they're legally required to hold that information themselves.
Do the businesses that are using SumSub for verification have access to any of the personal information, if so, what?
What happens if law enforcement gets involved and requests user identity data from the business?
 
It seems SumSub also gathers a lot of information about users from the businesses as well. SumSub advertises that they monitor user transactions on the businesses service (such as monitoring finance/crypto trades) and that they can even monitor users gambling behaviour. Why are they gathering this information? What are they using it for?
In general, what is SumSub doing with the personal information and tracking data they collect? Do they sell that data?
 
It would be interesting to know what information they store on users, how they store it, when they delete it, how easy it is for users to delete their data. For example are identity documents such as photos of drivers licences or passports destroyed after the user is successfully verified or are copies of that data stored indefinitely?
 
Which country or countries are SumSub storing or sharing data within? Which countries are their data centres located?
What about businesses operating in countries that have data residency laws that require businesses to collect and store data inside the country?
 

From a business standpoint, if you were a business that used SumSub to verify your users identities what would happen if you wanted to terminate your agreement with SumSub? Would you be able to get a copy of your customers personal information so you could migrate to a different ID verification system or do ID verification yourself? Without it the business would lose access to all of their identity verification, which may result in them being locked in to doing business with SumSub indefinitely. What happens to those businesses if SumSub goes out of business?
 
What if SumSub decides they don't like the business you do. What if you're a porn website that uses it to verify actor/model IDs & ages and then SumSub decides that it morally objects to gay porn and cuts you off from its services. Credit card companies and payment processors (like paypal, stripe) do stuff like that all the time and it can significantly impact a business.
 
If you were a startup business who is required to do identity checks for your users then it may be tempting to go with an off the shelf ready made ID verification solution like SumSub, but my concern would be getting locked in to using their system with no way to migrate out if you wanted to switch to a different solution or build your own. I would be cautious about being reliant on a third party.
 
 
As for the SumSub company itself, I have some concerns about where they are actually located and who the directors are. The Co-Founder names listed on the website About Us page do not appear to be their real legal names. The business filings and registrations list their real legal names. Considering their company is based on the principal of verifying real identities it seems strange to me that they're not using their real legal names on their company website.
They claim to be based in the UK, and they are a registered business in the UK, but it seems that they're maybe based out of Cyprus? The UK company is owned by a Cyprus based company and the directors country of residence is listed as Cyprus. SumSub Ltd is registered as a business in Cyprus as well, along with several other companies they are registered as directors of operating from Cyprus. I'm not sure if they actually have offices in the UK that they're actually operating from or if it's just a shell company with a mailing address in the UK so they can register as a UK business and claim to be based in the UK. It's possible that they are actually operating multiple offices internationally, but to me if the directors are located in Cyprus, the businesses are registered in Cyprus and owned by Cyprus based companies, and they have offices in Cyrpus then it seems to me that they're based in Cyprus, not UK.
This goes back to where users are handing over large amounts of personal information and ID documentation and need to trust who they are sending it to. Where the company is based and operating from and where the user personal data is being sent and shared with is very important. Cyprus might not have the same laws and regulations for protecting private data that somewhere like the UK has. They need to be absolutely transparent about where the company is based and where the data is being sent, and I'm not convinced they are being transparent.
 
I'm quite happy if SumSub would like to respond to or clarify any of the concerns I listed.

This is most likely your issue. Take out the 3050, and you'll likely see normal performance out of your 3060Ti, at the cost of a hit to your Blender time.
 
Otherwise, if you really need the render times, you should be able to configure which GPU to use for which applications in the Nvidia Control Panel. Running multiple GPUs for gaming is generally more hassle than it's worth, especially since SLI has been largely ignored by both Nvidia and game developers for the past 8 years or so. Especially if you have 2 nonidentical GPUs.
