Any recommended changes to my build or mistakes I'm making?

PCPARTPICKER:   https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Brandontmack/saved/#view=GhyZ23

 

Budget (including currency): 1200

Country: US

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: VR Gaming on Quest 2, 1440P gaming on Highest settings (non raytracing) while watching HD videos or streams.

Other details 

1- Already have all the storage, Its basically all I can take from my current build due to it being a heavily RGB build, and I want it toned down, along with would create a bottleneck to any of the current GPUs

2- Microcenter deal for the CPU-Mobo-RAM for $399. Was going to go with the 7800X3d bundle but for $100 more I felt it was better put into the graphics card

3- Case is expensive, but I absolutely love the Fractal North look

4- This is my first AMD GPU, as my current 2070 Super died after 4 years and want to switch, I choose the 7900 GRE due to it seeming to run games 25-30% better than the 7700XT, seemed justified for the extra $100.

5- I would very much like to try and make this as upgradeable as possible if I encountered any issues with parts over the next 5 years or so, but I was feeling this was a great base to setup first

 

Any suggestions would be great! Just want smarter minds than mine to assist before I lock in buying all of this.

With how much is preincluded there's not much to add. If you can bump the budget by that $100, the 7800x3d I feel like would be worth it. And what are all the parts that combo includes?

The parts include the CPU, MOBO, and RAM for the microcenter deal! I will very much think if I can stretch and get the 78003D version!

The 7700x bundle has the same RAM, different MOBO, as the 78003d. Price and Mobo are different for the CPUs, but each Mobo is basically the same for functionality

get a toughpower gf1 for the same price as that psu has a 10 year warranty

 

if you can stretch the budget or buy a used 6800xt/3080 (very minor downgrade but cuts 150-200$) then get the 7800x3d bundle which is 100$ extra

 

otherwise looks fine
