Help with design pc needed

Go to solution Solved by venomtail,

In what world is 7800XT a bottleneck?

RAM way too slow. Now that's a bottleneck.

Spending way too much on the Samsung SSD. Competitors cost half that.

FYI Smaller motherboard in a big case. Might not like how it looks. At $130 it's also very pricy. They don't even fully load it with fans...

 

Other than that it's solid.

 

I'd modify it to this:

Budget (including currency): 

Country: 1500$ (With Tax 6% sales tax where I live)

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Pretty taxing gaming I believe, and basic work things (though any 1500$ computers going to be able to do that lol)

Other details 

Here’s what I have so far (and yes, I know the 7800xt is going to be bottlenecked to hell)
