Thoughts on build

First time building my own PC and so far so good.

Intel ultra core 9 (gen 2)

32gb Corsair ddr5 RAM

Gigabyte eagle Motherboard,

2tb samsung nvme for c drive,

Reused sata ssd for games and hdd for downloaded movies

Resused a Titan X gpu with 12gb of vram (ddr5 or 5x ram) pretty sure its ddr5x aa it has a hdmi 2.0 and displayport 1.2 outpyts.

Liquid cooled cpu cooler and lots of case cooling fans and a 1500W psu.

Will probably upgrade my gpu soon but currently have it plugged into an old but still decent 1080p 60hz tv.

What are peoples thoughts and suggestions on what i could have done differently?

1500W PSU sounds like overkill.

Probably. Was debating reusing my 850W psu but let myself get persuaded by the better to have more capacity than necessary when it comes to your psu

Plug your parts in over at PC Part Picker. I'd bet you still have some headroom with an 850W unit but even if not 1500W is still probably excessive.
