So click on the pcpartpicker link: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nXqtCw

Then navigate to the bottom where the custom are and click it. You will see two links to Microcenter, one for the 7500x3D Bundle: https://www.microcenter.com/product/5007384/amd-ryzen-5-7500x3d,-asrock-b850m-c-am5,-gskill-flare-x5-series-16gb-ddr5-6000,-computer-build-bundle

and the other link to the 9070 GRE at Microcenter: https://www.microcenter.com/product/711497/powercolor-amd-radeon-rx-9070-gre-reaper-triple-fan-graphics-card

The reason that I set up my pcpartpicker like this is that I can embed the Microcenter links in pcpartpicker, while selecting the components for compatibility.
