possible birthday build, feedback?

[m0oble]

Budget (including currency): ~1500 USD

Country: United States

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Fortnite, Cyberpunk, GTA VI (if it ever gets ported), D:BH, etc.

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): hopefully will be getting this for my birthday (May 25) or not long after. 1440p at 165hz or higher. 

 

Current parts list: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/m0oble/saved/3kbTrH (CPU, motherboard, and RAM price is from a microcenter bundle)

 

Current PC: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/m0oble/saved/HYGTmG (1080p 144hz)

 

I do not want to go with intel for my CPU, and probably not GPU either unless they randomly drop some bomb ass products. 

Willing to go with AMD or Nvidia for my GPU.

case bc I want to keep this PC I have rn as a still complete build

psu is so bad that it isn't even on pcpartpicker, it's a tier E redragon 700w bronze

current SSD will be put in the new PC for extra storage, just not keeping it as main storage because of its age and speeds (bought it dec 2021)

I wouldn't waste any money on those cables. Especially not cheap ones. You can spray paint them red if you want, just tape off the clips.

 

You can totally do a 7900GRE for your budget, too, and this one has a black and red motif.
