In the home stretch - any other recommendations? Anything critical missing? Any red flags?

I know I should get a SDD for backup purposes, but beyond that, anything missing? I have all parts in my possession right now except the AOI and the RAM.

I'll probably have to settle for CL16 RAM - I'd prefer to buy it in person, and Microcenter doesn't seem to have much CL14, and anything lower than that is cost prohibitive.

​

Primary usage will be gaming, and I'm going to try some streaming of both PC games and consoles (I Have an external Elgato for console capture).

I would go for 3600mhz cl16, but apart from that everything seems fine. Also gg on the 3090, even though it my be bottlenecked a bit by the 5600x

Thanks - yeah, I've been desperately trying to get a 5900 for MSRP, but striking out.

​

I got super lucky with the 3090. Literally went to Microcenter one morning in December to buy a keyboard, wound up waiting in line and having to reach on that for about 1600 bucks. Of course, 4 months later, it's looking like a bargain (I'd still sell it if I could get my hands on a 3080).
