Did I overspend on my PC build?

I recently built a PC and converted my costs to USD. Here's the breakdown of what I paid: - AMD Ryzen 7800X3D: $392 - 32GB DDR5-6000 CL36 RAM: $271 - MSI B850-P WiFi motherboard: $196 - 850W power supply: $65 - Lian Li Lancool 216 RGB case: $88 - Peerless Assassin cooler: $36 - Hellhound 9070XT GPU: $654 This brings me to a total of around $1,702. The GPU and motherboard were on sale, but I know prices in my area are often higher than in the US. Also, I've picked the most affordable full-size motherboard. Should I consider switching to a smaller B650M motherboard and a different case? Overall, do you think this price is reasonable, or did I go a bit overboard?

It looks pretty normal for current market prices, especially given that GPU prices can fluctuate a lot these days. If you got those sales, thatโ€™s great!
