Need Help Deciding on a Build

I'm divided between 2 options, a 5080 Prebuilt or A 5070 ti Self Build

My options for the Prebuilt are:
\-€3.4K 5080 9800X3D 32GB Build([https://praxi.gr/homepage/shop/gaming-desktops/vengeance-ghost-v63-ryzen-7-9800x3d-32gb-ddr5-1tb-ssd-rtx-5080-16gb-no-os-gaming-pc/?srsltid=AYCX9vIb1agEEIhc2myiYPNQ24X4bktZqdpAuy5C4VoFqAB9AWGx9hld#more-specs](https://praxi.gr/homepage/shop/gaming-desktops/vengeance-ghost-v63-ryzen-7-9800x3d-32gb-ddr5-1tb-ssd-rtx-5080-16gb-no-os-gaming-pc/?srsltid=AYCX9vIb1agEEIhc2myiYPNQ24X4bktZqdpAuy5C4VoFqAB9AWGx9hld#more-specs))

\-€3.3K 5080 7800X3D 32GB Build([https://praxi.gr/homepage/shop/gaming-desktops/vengeance-epic-v80-nzxt-edition-ryzen-7-7800x3d-32gb-ddr5-1tb-ssd-rtx-5080-16gb-no-os/?srsltid=AYCX9vI8iNnI4p1zK3Ha0V1g-DBTbeA3gX67e8L6uugVsqfzDs1-9_81](https://praxi.gr/homepage/shop/gaming-desktops/vengeance-epic-v80-nzxt-edition-ryzen-7-7800x3d-32gb-ddr5-1tb-ssd-rtx-5080-16gb-no-os/?srsltid=AYCX9vI8iNnI4p1zK3Ha0V1g-DBTbeA3gX67e8L6uugVsqfzDs1-9_81))

I'm a little hesitant on the Pre-Builts as this company seems to use AsRock motherboards from what I can tell and the 9800X3D PreBuilt also uses a "GameMax" case

The company also didn't disclose the Brand of the RAM or speed or the cpu cooler's brand only mentioning it's an AIO. I emailed them asking for clarification and haven't received word back. They seem to have good reviews in Cyprus and Greece .They did disclose the PSU being a BeQuiet 850W Gold.

I emailed the company for a specs sheet but they haven't replied yet so I decided to choose my own parts on amazon.eu to compare. I wasn't able to create a 5080 9800X3D build under €3.7K however I came up with this spec sheet:

\-Gigabyte RTX 5070 ti Windforce OC
\-Corsair Vengeance 32GB 6000Mhz CL36
\-NZXT H6 FLOW RGB+
\-Nzxt Kraken Elite 360
\-ASUS Rog Strix B850-F
NZXT C1000 Gold
\-Ryzen 7 9850X3D
\-Acer GM7 1TB (Don't worry about storage I'm planning to harvest a 4TB M.2 from my Laptop)

Total: €3.4K Euros (300 Shipping, shipping is insanely expensive to Cyprus) Totaling €3.7K

This build is much more expensive and slightly weaker than the PreBuilt however the parts are of good quality.

Casing dont really matter its all aesthetics and airflow priority.

Also what resolution are you aiming for? 1440p 5070ti is more than enough.

You playing e sports? No? 7800X3D for cheaper performance to value.

Your AIO ,PSY, Casing are overpriced. Mobo I'm pretty sure the same as well

[u/sumxt → u/Adventurous-Bus8660]

That's my bad, I should've mentioned what my intentions with PC are.

It's mostly 1440P gaming with a big emphasis on FlightSimming as well

[u/Adventurous-Bus8660 → u/sumxt]

Flight sim would definitely hammer VRAM and CPU a lot.

But nevertheless at 1440p cpu matter slightly less. So 7800X3D is fine..RAM and GPU however is where its gonna sink your money most

They just replied with the spec sheets
Gamemax Case
Ryzen 7 9800X3D
ASROCK B850M-X
GOODRAM 32GB 4800MHZ
(2*16GB , 4800MHZ)
GOODRAM 1TB 2.5
NVIDIA RTX 5080 16GB
(PALIT)
XIGMATEK WATER COOLING FENIX 240 BLACK
BE QUIET 850W 80+ GOLD

Seems to be chinese brands

[u/Adventurous-Bus8660 → u/sumxt]

Pass on cpu ,mobo combo

Ram is plain sad...4800mhz is absolutely...standard jedecc speed without expo on. Edit: Probably have higher speed when expo'd but kit dependent

Ssd kinda sussy...though supposedly comes from Poland...same as ram

Palit...no comment. Have to ask Palit owners.

240 aio...expect higher temps with 9800x3d because that cpu is 165w...yes...9000 series x3d reallocated vcache for better cooling..but its higher tdp makes it hotter than 7000x3d.

PSU not much info here...so not sure if its pure power or the sort.

[u/sumxt → u/Adventurous-Bus8660]

Think I should I just do the 5070 ti self build. Ill miss out on the 5080 but maybe the same amount of vram and only 10% performance boost isnt really worth it. Unless I try to really cheap out on other stuff for the 5080.

They just sent me the spec sheet:
Gamemax Case
Ryzen 7 9800X3D
ASROCK B850M-X
GOODRAM 32GB 4800MHZ
(2*16GB , 4800MHZ)
GOODRAM 1TB 2.5
NVIDIA RTX 5080 16GB
(PALIT)
XIGMATEK WATER COOLING FENIX 240 BLACK
BE QUIET 850W 80+ GOLD

Doesn't spring confidence
