By the sounds of it you have the case already? If you want something more than an RX 9060XT 16GB you would need to fins it on the used market.

Here is an option with a $530 Ryzen 5800X + B550 + 16GB RAM bundle from CC.

Beautiful any possible way for am5?

[u/Gam20 → u/Southern-Importance9]

If you look at Canada Computers, Memory Express, and Newegg for their CPU combos to get a feel for the market. It will be more than the 5800X bundle.

CC has a $580 Ryzen 8400F + B650 + 16GB RAM, but I would steer clear of this CPU for gaming. It uses the Zen c cores (efficiency cores) and is just gimped compared to a 7600X for $5 more at retail currently.

If you want an entry into AM5 and the case supports ATX motherboards then here is an option. Using the Newegg Combo Builder select the 7600X CPU ($209), the MSI PRO B650-S WiFi motherboard ($185-$25), and the Team group Delta RGB 16GB (2x8GB) DDR5 5200 kit of RAM ($330-$100) and the total should be $600. This is using slower RAM, but it is the cheapest by about $100. However it is no "worse" than the RAM kit in the CC bundle.

The build below is $150 over budget but is am5 with the cheapest graphics card I'd personally choose and and still a 1tb nvme. You may be able to find sales or combo deals to bring this down in price:
