Hello, everyone!

CGDirector.com Parts List: https://www.cgdirector.com/pc-builder/?=6NX12

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 4.5GHz 16-Core Processor ($549.00)
CPU Cooler: be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 ($89.90)
Motherboard: MSI PRO B650-P WIFI ATX AM5 ($188.17)
GPU: Nvidia RTX 4080 16GB - ZOTAC Gaming ($1099.99)

I've got this build from PC-builder tool. I'll just going to add 64GB more RAM.
But I have doubts - do I really need 1200w power supply? PC-builder shows estimated wattage 599W.
And do you have else any suggestions?

Thank you for responds! Really appreciate!

Not really, the builder might've picked that as it found the 1200W discounted by a good margin, making it a better value than lower wattage models. You'll need around 850-1000W with that setup.

And do you have else any suggestions?
The build looks good to me. When adding additional memory to a Ryzen 7000 build, please read this first - https://www.cgdirector.com/ddr5-ram-ryzen-beware/
