The 4000D is a hose job for the price. It comes with a single 120mm front intake fan. You can do better. Here's a few cases to consider.

Add this fan to the back of that case for a rear exhaust fan.

Budget (including currency): $1200

Country: US

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Anno, Diablo 4, 

Other details: 

 

This list is taking advantage of a CPU/MOBO/Memory bundle from microcenter so that’s why the CPU is adjusted higher and the mobo and memory are adjusted to $0. 
 

I like the idea of voting with my wallet to keep Intel in the GPU game

Considering that youre buying this from Micro Center, you might wanna check out their case section before you pull the trigger on the Focus 2. Ive heard some stores having open box deal for computer case.

I would just recommend a NVIDIA gpu, instead of intel. As others have stated, they have a lot of issues to work out with their gpu's.

4060 ti? Really?

My First PC
CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x
Cooler: Asus TUF Gaming LC240
Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B550-f gaming
RAM: 4x8 GB Corsair Vengeance RS (3200 MHz, CL16)
Storage: 1tb Samsung 980 Pro
Graphics Card: Asus Dual RTX 2060 OC
Case: Deepcool Matrexx 50
Power Supply: Corsair RM650x
Headset: Razer Blackshark V2
Keyboard: Corsair K70 Pro Mini (Speed Silver switches)
Mouse: Razer Viper Mini
Only changes I have made is I sold the 2060 for $235 AUD and bought a Powercolor Red Devil 6700 XT for $400 second hand (it was barely used, think I scored a deal on Ebay with that).
I'm learning video editing and trying to get some cash as a high school student.
I like F1, my favourite team is Scuderia Ferrari and favourite driver is Charles Leclerc. Favourite track is Red Bull Ring in Austria.
Playing with a 1080p 60hz monitor right now, hoping to upgrade to a 1440p 144hz one soon.

Living in AU and that pisses me off since every event is late at night or early in the morning (almost every F1 race starts around 11 PM AEST time)
