That case is very restricted air-flow wise,not recommended for a power hungry card like the RTX 3090.

Are you kidding me?!,That is not nearly enough to power that PC!

Gen 4 in SSDs is just a gimmick.

Thanks for taking the time to organise a new parts list for me but it appears you didn't read my original post.

 

I'm purchasing a 650W PSU to replace my 1200i that i'll be using in the new System. 

 

I've already purchased the 3090 and the case. As for the case, it was the only case I could find that looked clean and simplistic that I liked. My current Case (NZXT Switch 810) currently holds the my 3090 and temps are normal compared to what's out there (Around 70C under Load) and the case has limited airflow (I have cables blocking my front fans and haven't removed any components to improve airflow) especially compared to the H710i. I think the H710i will be fine.

 

I'm not interested in having a Mechanical HDD in my new system so i've opted for two NVME drives however I will take your advice and have a look at switching out one of my GEN4 SSD's for a GEN3 with higher capacity and upgrade that to a GEN4 if I need to sometime in the future.

 

Thanks for the help.
