Advice on VFX and 4k editing workstation.

[Shakubuku]

Aiming at $3500. Probably using Lightwave, Maya, Octane, Redshift, Fusion, Vegas. But final sequence rendering on separate farm.
I usually buy pre-assembled, and have not assembled a workstation myself in over 10 years. NOT looking forward to compatibility headaches of assembling, but want to save cost.

Anything I am missing from my CG Director recommendation?

Swap the cooler out to any decent 360mm AIO Liquid cooler.

Everything else looks good to me, unless you will need more memory for your work (96/128 GB)
