    This seems completely coherent for the use you want.

    But a few remarks: the PSU is a model that Be Quiet no longer markets, and it would be better to go for 1200 W, especially if you want silence, given the PC's power if you run several software programs at the same time it will load heavily and a 1000 W PSU will heat up thus cool less and produce more noise.

    The best is to aim for a 1200 W semi-passive like Be Quiet's Dark Power 14 to stay with them.

    And for the graphics card, you're dealing with a frankly gaming model; it might have been possible to take something intermediate between a 5050 and a 9060XT, such as an Nvidia 5060 TI in 8 GB. You’ll also need to pay attention to the number of monitors you use; sometimes there are surprises with the available outputs on graphics cards.

      Hello,

      We credit this rise to the frenzy of AI and the servers that go with it and are served as a priority, which is not ready to stop unless, to some extent, like the 2008 bubble, it bursts at least for the significant share of wind that makes it up.

    Hi

    Do you handle the PC assembly yourself or would you prefer a shopping list to have assembled by a professional?

    Otherwise, regarding components, is aiming for the i9 14900k a good idea, or a Core Ultra 9 which will be slightly better and offers more motherboard options?

    Personally, for professional equipment, which seems to be the PC’s intended use, I would discourage AMD as it remains less stable than Intel. But that’s just my personal experience.

    That said, if the solution is a hardware list and assembly by a pro, LDLC has stores quite a few places across France and offers a perfectly decent configurator, no risk of incompatibility, as with TopAchat anyway (it's the same or nearly the same since it's the same group)

    Hello and first of all thank you for your insightful responses.

    As a rule I will likely be set on this configuration; any suggestion will be welcome to avoid compatibility issues...

    Ssd x2:

    alimentation :

    Graphics card :

    ventilation for the CPU :

    motherboard :

    Case / tower

    Processor :

    RAM :

    Thanks again for the help...

      I have a doubt about the RAM,

      https://www.amazon.fr/Kingston-Beast-128GB-5600MT-M%C3%A9moire/dp/B0F8P6VRQT/ref=asc_df_B0C34CDQ7Q?mcid=db65fd26e5703f7fa5c91b7453557711&tag=googshopfr-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=701511851270&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11814847225157536650&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9055339&hvtargid=pla-2086033508083&hvocijid=11814847225157536650-B0C34CDQ7Q-&hvexpln=0&th=1

      This one is 2x 64 (which would let me have 296 GB but it is rated at 5600 MHz CL 40 compared to the other at 6000 CL 36...

      I don’t know in terms of performance which of these two models would be the most performant?

        Hi

        At these frequencies in DDR5, the performance difference is impossible to quantify, so it is largely better to favor quantity; if you can get 64GB, take it.

        For your latest configuration, it seems very good to me; one caveat is the motherboard bought on Darty… it’s not great, there are often issues because it’s a marketplace with limited guarantees on the origin of the hardware.
