my current setup includes 3 x 1440 IPS 144hz Gigabyte Monitors And an old Ryzen 5 1070 build which is quite dated. 
 

Looking for some guidance and critiques of my parts selection. It’s definitely way more than I needed, however, the part list already details the parts I have purchased. I could have saved some more money here and there but honestly just grabbed some of these parts while they’re available. I was interested in purchasing a 3090 however really struggled in Aus to find anything in stock and after some reviews settled with a 6900XT that is still definitely more than I need. 
 

I have 12 Noctua fans that are quite old due to lack of cleaning on my last build however purchased some new ones to a total of 12 including old. 
 

not looking to over clock too much what I have already purchased is definitely more than I need. 
 

Not a massive fan of RGB, so in hind sight wish I looked at getting the air variant case as the dynamic is more suited for a water cooled system in which I’m only using an AIO. 
 

Unsure about memory, heard that around 3600mhz is the sweet spot? 
 

also concerned on motherboard having enough fan headers and USB headers for case io (USB-c)?

 

currently away from home due to COVID and have shipped all the parts to home to be built when I get home hopefully before the new year. 
 

any criticisms or feedback? Hurdles you can foresee? 
 

cheers
