Probably unplug three of those fans and block off the case openings to get some sort of laminar flow. Switch to a more efficient power supply. Yours is platinum but it may be worth it to look into a list of low standby power units. Maybe take out half your ram. It probably doesn’t matter though, I’m thinking about the need for lpddr to get past the 1tb barrier on old servers. The b850 boards will have efficiency settings in the bios that will make the biggest difference. Before you change anything though I would recommend first putting a watt meter inline and measuring. Theres a bunch of stuff you can manually do in software but its fractions of a percent and makes your experience very nonstandard. The biggest thing is probably gonna be turning off the computer when you’re not using it. It’s not like you’re gonna be spinning down a bunch of hdds…
