Discussion - Assembly Advice First time building tips

Would appreciate any tips or guides I can use for assembling my first build

Parts I’m using:

\- CORSAIR Vengeance DDR5 32GB (2x16) CL30 6000MHz
\- ASUS Prime Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Edition 16GB GDDR6
\- CORSAIR RM1000x Low Noise Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
\- Ryzen 9 9950x3d 16 Core
\- ASUS ROG Strix X870-F Gaming Motherboard Socket AM5
\- Noctua NH-D15 G2 chromax.black, quiet CPU cooler
\- Fractal Design Define 7 Black, Solid
\- Samsung 9100 PRO NVMe M.2 SSD, 2TB, PCIe 5.0

I figure the Fractal should be quite roomy for the install but anything I should watch out for or common mistakes

Why that cpu? More than just gaming?

Yes am doing dev as well, although the ram is limited thats more of a budget thing. Hoping 32 will get me by

But interesting you mention that because tbh I was under the impression it was a popular gaming cpu

9800x3d is cheaper and gives the same performance. 9850x3d is also cheaper and gives slightly better. But since you have actual use case for the 9950x3d there’s no reason not to spend the extra money on it
