I noticed a few things about your build that might need a second look. The case seems overpriced for what you're getting; I’d look for something around $60 instead. For the power supply, I'd recommend going with a more reputable brand for better reliability. And consider RAM with AMD EXPO support for optimal performance.
If you're into RGB aesthetics, you might want to add an RGB cooler to match your RGB case! You can upgrade your CPU to the 9800X3D if you're looking for more performance, too. For storage, a DRAM-equipped NVMe SSD like the Team Cardea A440 is a decent option if it's within your budget, but you probably won't notice a huge difference without it.
Thanks for the feedback! I see your point about the case and PSU. I’ll definitely look into a more reputable PSU and consider RAM with AMD Expo. The RGB cooler you suggested looks great too! I’ll take a look at the CPU upgrade and the NVMe with DRAM. Appreciate the links!
