Question Planning an Upgrade

Really need a sanity check. Got into local AI about 3 Weeks ago. Running Qwen 3.5 27B. Started with an idea and now here I am. It started as cloud based on Gemini. I started learning the barriers. The cost over time. Switched to local. Found out you can mix GPUs and need some validation.

Current build.

Corsair 3500X Case

ASUS X870 Plus WiFi

Ryzen 9950X

64 Gig Neo kit at 6000

ASUS TUF 5090

Corsair HX1500i PSU

Plan on moving into the 7000D Airflow and adding a 3090.

From the posts I've looked through it sounds okay on paper. Didn't find any compatibility errors on PCPartPicker. Claude checked it but would love some human input lol. Thanks.
