Which of these is the main usage?

 

For content creation I'd try to squeeze in a 7900:

or for gaming, then a 7800X3D:

These are the changes I would make to it to make better use of the budget, I've given it an upgrade with a 4070 so you get DLSS, and a WD SN850x black which is a much better choice for the main storage. both the 13600K and the 4070 will give you better power management on idle/light during your productivity work. I think the 13600K has better low 1% and 0.1% in games as well but mostly ties with the 7700x in avrage fps.

Thank you!

That CL40 RAM is going to be a bottleneck if any gaming is involved. I'd also look for AMD EXPO RAM.
