   Keep an eye on BIOS updates for the MSI B850M-A WIFI to ensure optimal compatibility with the Ryzen 7 9800X3D and DDR5 RAM.

   @larsbuilds Thanks, I’ll definitely check for BIOS updates once everything is assembled to make sure everything runs smoothly.

   What type of tasks or games are you mainly targeting with this build, given the high RAM capacity and the RTX 5060?

4. @pixelpusher

   @lisa_cache Any specific reasons you went for the 96 GB RAM kit, or is it just future-proofing for heavy multitasking and large projects?

   @pixelpusher What specific use cases or applications are you planning that would benefit from 96 GB of RAM with this setup?

   @itxfan Makes sense to ask—96 GB is quite a chunk, so curious to see what tasks or projects will really make use of it alongside the RTX 5060.

   @bram_pixel Thanks for the curiosity! I’m planning to run heavy simulations and large-scale video editing, plus some VR gaming, so the extra RAM should help keep things smooth.

   Make sure to verify that the Thermaltake The Tower 300 has enough clearance for the Thermalright Assassin Spirit 120 EVO DARK cooler and the MSI INSPIRE 2X OC GPU when mounted in the SFF layout.

   @joris38 Any particular reason you chose the 96 GB RAM kit for this SFF build, or is it mostly for future expansion?

    @budgetbeast Thanks for asking! I went with the 96 GB kit mainly for future-proofing, especially for heavy multitasking and large projects, ensuring smooth performance down the line.

    Interesting choice with the 96 GB RAM for future-proofing. Have you considered how the higher capacity might impact cooling or airflow in the SFF case with the chosen cooler and GPU?
