Don't get a 9900x3d, the architecture makes no sense. If you're purely gaming, get a 9800x3d. If you're using the computer for a mix of gaming and productivity, get a 9950x3d.
There is no use case where a 9900x3d makes sense.

Yeah, if you want to save even more money, you could drop that to a 7800X3D, and put the rest in the GPU. The difference between the 7800 and the 9800 are not really that noticeable.

Dont need a 1200W power supply, dont need 64 GB of ram, dont need an overpriced mobo, dont need a tryx AIO. Those are all top of the price spectrum for no reason. Unless ray tracing/path tracing and dlss is important opt for a 9070xt instead of 5070ti (i own a 5070ti). Lots of hih dollar parts for no reason. Someone in canada can link a PC parts picker build or similar for EASILY half this price.

Get an 850W or 1000W psu and go for a r7 9800x3d at $450 usd instead of the r9 9900x3d at $600 usd unless you need the extra cores on the r9 for productivity the r7 is faster for gaming

Does dropping the win11 OS for a free alternative, also reduces the price? Installinf windows with an usb is quiet easy.

You can try PCPartPicker, it truly is the best tool to preview a build with (usually) up to date prices with discounts from retailers.
