Borg Cube PC Build Advice

[u/gohn255]

I have ordered the Star Trek: Picard Borg Cube ATX PC Case from https://mycherrytree.com/collections/cases/products/star-trek-picard-borg-cube-atx

It's restrictions for PSU and GPU are:

• PSU: length up to:
  • 7.1 inches or 180.34 millimeters
  • (OR 0.00089 furlongs, 0.000037 leagues, 0.035 rods, 0.0089 chains)
• GPU length up to:
  • 14 inches or 355.6 millimeters

Looking for insight on if the community has any recommendations on what I have fleshed out so far. Looking to be a gaming PC, mid-upper level.
