I hate that case, though it is pretty.  It doesn’t have very good cooling and isn’t even very quiet.  It’s actually fairly expensive for what it is.    The pop air is the same price and much better functionally.  Me I like the cheap stuff when it comes to cases myself.   The cooler choice is also strange given the case.  So a pure games machine huh?  1080p@75 is nuts at this budget level.  In the one I made almost half the budget is monitor. You may notice the case is absurdly cheap.  It’s also absurdly small, and unlike most  tiny cases like that it’s got a lot of available height.  The cooler is almost as big as the motherboard.  Crazy large.  It’s a really good cooler though and the price could not be ignored.  You will also notice I didn’t come close to budget and THERE IS NO VIDEO CARD.  none at all.  This is because what a body does is get the best used one that is possible. (And fits in the case.  The PSU is 140mm so you can put the biggest one in you can, but that’s still not a whole lot)  so a tiny pretty expensive gaming powerhouse, and a monstrous monitor.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

A 120 AIO will not do a good job with an i7-13700K.

 

New CPU coolers include thermal compound. As a pre-applied pad or in a small tube. There is usually no need for more.

 

An odd build with expensive CPU, motherboard, and GPU and an inexpensive CPU cooler and case. Consider a case with better cooling.

 

The motherboard has Bluetooth and WiFi. There is usually no need for an add-on card.

 

There are better, less expensive PSU.

 

Given the GPU, a very odd choice of monitor. Is there a reason for the choice?

 

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

I would put literally all of that into the monitor.   Yes.  That means a $3500 monitor on-a $1500 system.
 

High end CPUs and GPUs both have “what are you even going to do with that much power?!” Problems.  I could have put a 13900ks if I needed to.  I did a 12700 non-k.  There is just no way to predict what sort of cpu might be wanted when the PS6 rolls around. There won’t be ANY machines prepared for that,  there can’t be.  The future just gets real real fuzzy at that point.  The one for me is at the end of the ps5/XboxX will one need a 16 thread chip or not.  If yes, get an 8core.  A 3700x will do it.  If NOT (and that remains possible) a 3600x will do it. A 5600x is nice.  It’s got mad single thread compared to a ps5/XboxX.  That’s a lot less than a 13700k though.  All the way to the wall would be a 5800x.  Which is why I got a 12700.  It’s just a bit faster.  Why would I need more for gaming?  The higher end last gen 3xxx and 6xxx series video cards could push 4k high refresh.  What use is more than that?  
aThe bit that HASNT been topped out of though are monitors.  That will happen when you can get as much Qoled @4k120 as you can fit on your desk.  I couldn’t afford that, so I got ips 4k@120. I don’t have the hdr stuff or the inky blacks or the long service life.  It was the best I could do.  

 

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.
