Couple of things to note, the following things I already own,

 

- GPU

- PSU

- All Storage

Go with the 5600X instead of the 5800X simply due to pricing and availability. Also go for a better x570 board instead of that B550 option (It's super silly to spend $450 on a CPU when your motherboard is that laughably cheap) and I'd go with the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280. It's better than the Kraken.

 

The 5800x is the albatross in terms of pricing to performance. It's too close to the 5900x in price to justifying not just going for the 5900x, and it's $150 more than the 5600X for an addition two cores that don't really net any real visible gain in games and such.

The parts selection is pretty solid not a terrible price on the CPU either

What purpose would an X570 motherboard serve? That msi mortar is great.

Do you know of any decent x570 matx mobo with wifi, an odd set of requirements I know. As for the 5800x, I know the 5600x is much better value but there's none in the UK and wont be till early next year, and I really just want this build done now so I can play cyberpunk. As for the cooler, thank you, il swap that out now.
