Upgrade KIT AM5 from Megekko

[AccordingOne]

Budget (including currency): +/- 700 Euro

Country: Netherlands

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: New AAA Games

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): We already have a working system that we want to upgrade. we keep the housing and graphics card (GTX 1080) from it. We need built-in decent wifi capabilities that will replace the external card used so far.

Graphics card is going to be updated in folowing months. 

What do you think about this upgrade kit:

and PSU:

I don't know many websites selling parts in Netherlands. Megekko and Bol.com are the only ones that crossed my mind.

DO you have other suggestions ? Will this processor be a significant increase over for example 7600x? what cooler do you recommend for the set?

The link says the deal don't exist anymore, but then you have some other options

One is the kit below but only 655EUR, so 10% off, that's good, and the part list is good too (nice midrange board, best RAM kit for AM5)

Your PSU is fine, esp. with NVidia 4000 as it has a 12VHP disaster connector

You can cool it with a cheap TR PS120, 39EUR

He need few more months to save up for that, but he's going to purchase. I would say something in 4060/70/ti range. Not a problem yet.

Question: Is 7800x3d that much better for pure gaming than 7600x ? Procentagewise ?

That makes about 770 Euro in total and that is a final limit of a budget. Would You guys still change anything ? I wanna order parts from one site only, easier billing, waranty claims and so on. Megekko sems to be the best pricewise.

This would perform significantly worse than the thermalright pa120se and it costs around the same so I’d get the PA120SE
