Optimise for new build?

[Littlenose]

I'm building a new box for the upcoming 9800x3d release.
It'll primarily be for flight sims, and think I've picked out suitable parts, but wondered if it could be optimised by spending a little more, or even by choosing something cheaper where I'd not lose anything perceptible?

This is my shopping cart at the moment:

1 X Asrock X670E Pro RS (Socket AM5) DDR5 ATX Motherboard - £279.98
SKU: MB-18S-AK

---

1 X G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo EXPO RGB 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5 PC5-48000C30 6000MHz Dual Channel Kit - £230.00
SKU: MEM-GSK-01357

---

1 X Antec C5 ARGB Midi Tower - Black - £109.99
SKU: CAS-ATC-02729

---

1 X Lian Li Galahad II LCD Performance AIO 280mm CPU Water Cooler - Black - £129.95
SKU: COO-LIA-00529

---

Grand Total: £749.92

I have a new 1000W power supply ready to go in.
I'm borrowing a 3080Ti, and stealing a 2TB nvme from my "old" box.
Will likely end up with 3 nvme's, and a 5080 (or 5090) next year.

Thanks for posting up some options. The info on the mobo is really interesting.
Will I not need PCI-E 5 for the Nvidea 5080 in the coming year ?

My CPU is on delivery, and hte mobo market has fluctuated in stock quite a bit, I have ended up with the MSI MAG X670E Tomahawk WIFI motherboard.

Hoping to build this weekend, and will post successes / fails here
