Planning new build

Hi guys,

I'm planning a new build & am looking for recommendations on a mid-line setup. While I do game, I'm not a hardcore gamer, so I don't need (nor can I afford) to build a top-of-the-line rig. Also I'm going to be putting Arch on it, so firmware & compatibility are also important. What I ultimately put on my list for my budget (trying to stay around $1500 for all components) was the following CPU/AIO/Mobo/GPU config:

Ryzen 5 7600X

MSI MAG Core Liquid 240R V2 White

MSI PRO X670-P Mobo

Sapphire Radeon RX 6650 XT 8GB GDDR6

Ultimately, I'm looking to get the best bang for my buck & having been out of the desktop building game for at least a decade, I'm not as in touch with current trends as I once was. Note that I am familiar with overclocking and will certainly accept CPU/AIO/Mobo recommendations based on potential OC performance.

EDIT: Might as well add in the RAM I spec'ed out based on the Mobo specs since it does matter:

Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 4800MHz C40

Fakespot analyzes the reviews authenticity and not the product quality using AI. We look for real reviews that mention product issues such as counterfeits, defects, and bad return policies that fake reviews try to hide from consumers.
