Looks good, though I'd probably get 6000 MT/s RAM, if possible, it will give a little bit more CPU perfomance.

Purify your Windows 10/11, don't give Microsoft anything that you don't want to share.

You could go a bit lower on this build then

Try this, but if you're upgrading to 1440p in the soon future then go for my original build

5600 CL28 is the sweet spot for AM5

While I love being able to get a 7800x3d and 7900XTX into a $1900 build...

 

To the OP...

 

I would advocate opening more budget for a decent case.  Unless you don't care at all.  But in my opinion, a $2000 build deserves a proportional case.

 

I get it, cases don't add performance, but while I can make a Civic beat a Ferrari... I still want an appropriate level case.

 

That's why I am rethinking my Lian Li Lancool II Mesh C.  I simply do not like case.  Going back to Fractal I think.

@MagicGeneral changed the RAM to DDR5 6000 AMD Expo and a case with better airflow than that overpriced 4000D. The 120mm fan goes inside the back of that case for an exhaust fan.

I don't really need anything crazy honestly. All I really need in a case is something that's high quality and works! I mean I'll look at your recommendations but a case over $130 would be too much for me.
