I'm planning to build a new PC in a few weeks but haven't made any purchases yet. Here are my current picks: [PCPartPicker List](https://pcpartpicker.com/user/HashtagBabyfat/saved/#view=XWqWBm). I'm also looking to add a DIY magnetic dust filter to it. I'm open to any suggestions or changes as long as they stick to the following guidelines: I don't want a 50 series graphics card, I aim for positive pressure inside my case and could use tips on how to achieve that, and I would prefer to keep my budget under $5k (currently around $4.5k). No need for fancy aesthetics; I'm primarily into sandbox and simulation games and don't play 4k first-person shooters. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hey! It looks like your PCPartPicker link might be broken. You might want to try creating an anonymous permalink instead. Just click on "Edit this Part List" to generate it. If you're interested, some guides on making a table for your build can help as well. Happy building!
Getting DDR5-8000 to work on AM5 can be tricky. Just a heads up! Also, why are you avoiding the 50 series graphics cards? As for your power needs, a 150W CPU plus a 320W GPU probably doesn’t require a 1200W power supply. You could save some bucks there!
Is there a compatibility issue with that RAM and AM5? I'm not very knowledgeable about this stuff.
