Considering the current situation, it is a pretty solid build for the price. Could it be cheaper, yes, but probably you won't be able to find a better offer right now. If you need a new computer now, then this one will perform very well.

Budget (including currency): 1770 us dollars..or 10995 danish crowns

Country: denmark

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: games, triple A

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

Rure Base 500 DX
CPU AMD 5600X
CPU cooler Be Quiet Pure Rock slim

I mean, in theory:
CPU = 300$
GPU = 400$

And the rest of that build is absolutely not 1000$ worth of tech.  you're paying a premium right now for things that are hard to find.

 

decide if you're okay with paying the upcharge to get something during the shortage.

Except you can't get this GPU for 400$. I know that an RTX 3060TI isn't worth 1000€ but that's the current pricing. (At least where I live)
Don't get me wrong I don't recommend buying this GPU for 1000€, but that's the current pricing and we can't change it.

Yes, it's a solid build, absolutely.  It'll run very well.

I was just stating MSRP, and saying that the build is being charged a heavy premium.  That's all.

Without knowing model and part numbers it's mostly a guess. The price does not seem outrageous gven current supply and pricing. But current gpu, cpu, and to some extent psu prices are outrageous across the board.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
