ok, but do you know the companies KTC and Koorui?

As for the case, are 3 140 front fans better than two 120?
Koorui 1440p 144hz moniter works fine for me for 2 years.

  • AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
  • ASUS TUF GAMING B550-PLUS WIFI II
  • 8x2 Corsair DDR4-2132 RAM (1066 MHz)

I'm considering these changes:

  • GPU: Gainward 4070 Super (although the 7900gree isn't bad)

Case:(always in argb)

In your opinion, can the PSU keep this build or should I change it?

You can use memory that is not on that list. That is more of a helpful guide that says, Asus at least plugged a set into this board and it powered on.

Either of these will work.. They are both 3600 CL 16 kits.. CL18 will work as well..

I am assuming desk means dimms. Yes.. 1 dimm will hinder performance, you need dual channel.

my question is if I buy two single desks or a kit of two desks is it the same?
You'd better always buy a kit (either a pair or a quad kit). They're factory assured to work well together.

and yes, I wanted to take two from a desk to do dual channel, I don't know if I explained myself, for example

Yes, gotcha. If you want 32GB do as I said, buy a 2x16GB kit. Not a single 1x32GB module, neither two individual 1x16GB modules (even if they're the same model and bought at the same place and time).

2x16 for getting dual channel (1x32 wouldn't do that), and a kit against separate modules for factory assured compatibility between parts.
It isn't that if getting two separate 16GB sticks they won't work together. But there may be some tinkering required if they do not play along nicely.

I'm talking about my koorui 27e1q , it has some bugs on my 7900xtx ,causing flicking when free sync is on. Howerver I don't have other issues to complain about

LOL!
I'd send it back, it's freesync what you want, that's the reason you buy a high hz monitor for!!

In what sense?
IN the sense that even your current system would play the games just fine. But we arent here for that either. Ignore my adviceand logic. Listen to what these others have to say. Good day.

Then I saw the deepcool CH560 and the bquiet. The first convinces me because it has 3 140 fans on the front, the bquiet has 3 120 fans. As for the graphics, I was undecided about both the 3070 and the 7900gree, I don't know if there is a difference even if they say on YouTube that in this price range the difference is minimal. They also advised me to change the psu

As you go up in graphics horse power, so does the PSU requirements. You should never need anything bigger than an 850w. The PSU is the heart of your system. Cheap out on the PSU and you risk system crashes and odd behavior.

Il 750w è disponibile con questo aggiornamento o, come mi dicono in molti, è troppo vecchio?

Is the 750w available with this update or, as many people tell me, is it too old?

I must have missed something. If an upgrade package you are picking up has a 750w, that should be good enough for now.

My Current PSU is almost that old. The PSU in my kids system is that old. He has a 800W Corsair, cant remember the model right now, but he is running a 5800x and a RX 6700 XT.

Depending on your budget, yes. You can wait if you need to and not wait, if your budget can cover it.
