I taught my girlfriend how to build a pc for the first time!

My girlfriend just graduated from her college and is transferring to another one soon to fulfill her nursing degree! So I figured I would build her a pc for her gift. She wanted to help me build it so I used my spare 7900xtx (recently upgraded to a 9070xt) and gave her my old 7900xtx card to use in her build. The experience of building was…interesting to say the least. I don’t know exactly how she did it but she bent the pins on the motherboard so I had to buy another one, but honestly we laughed, we cried, and most of all we completed the build!

SPECS:
7900xtx
7800x3d
32gb DDR5 6000mhz ram
2TB SSD Samsung evo 990 pro
1000w power supply

Should I upgrade my monitor?

I have a 2k 144hz monitor that I use daily. However I just seen that a Alienware QD-OLED 240hz monitor is on sale for $350. Was wondering if there was a jump from a normal QHD panel to a oled? As well does 144 to 240hz offer a difference?

Specs:
CPU:9800x3d
Gpu: 9070xt
Ram: 32gb
4TB storage
