How did you go with this build? Do you know if any of the 2.5" drive areas can be changed to 3.5"? 

I'm hoping to fit 6x 3.5"HDDs

Cheers

If the motherboard supports it, I'd up the RAM to between 128GB and 192GB.

 

For the Media Cache, 4TB or larger NVMe SSD.

1TB or 2TB works, too, but you can spend time on multiple projects and never think about it or you can spend time clearing it.

CASE - Lian Li LANCOOL III RGB ATX Mid Tower Case

 

How many and where are the cooling fans?

 

My case https://www.amazon.com/Rosewill-Gaming-Computer-THOR-V2-W/dp/B005XUAAP2 has a grill in the side panel where I installed a 200mm fan that blows air onto the motherboard for extra cooling... in addition to the 120mm fan in the front of the case

If you want to go with a mid range motherboard it's ok you can do that but it's better to get the I9 12900 in that case

Hello, 

Asus PRIME Z790-A WIFI ATX LGA1700 Motherboard Not good with i9 you will receive the "Out of video memory trying to allocate a rendering resource", go for ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 DARK HERO LGA1700 ATX
Seagate Barracuda Compute 8 TB 3.5" 5400 RPM Internal Hard Drive, I'll go with SSDs instead of HDD big difference!
Zotac GAMING Trinity GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16 GB Video Card try to get Asus, MSI, Galax!

thank you for your reply. I have never heard of that error does it come up for Premiro pro? is it common or a rare one. Because that mother board you mentioed costs double the money. Did you have another MOBO you can recommend that is a similar price.

what about the Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite X it looks like good value half as much as the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS
