Ok nice and this is not a gaming build its a programming build actually :)
For a programming build you are spending a lot on its aesthetics. You can make a build that performs exactly the same but costs significantly less if you focus less on the RGB and more on price to performance parts. I felt like it would be a bit of a disservice to not at least mention this to you and provide an alternative. The 5600x has nearly the same multi-core performance as the 3700x but is around 20% faster single core performance while using less power, is easier to cool, and being cheaper.

We are looking at a 300 dollar difference between the builds with better single core performance and similar multi-core the only difference being aesthetic and a slightly lower wattage PSU. If you are worried about going from 8 to 6 cores then spend those savings on a 5800x or 5900x.

SevacSingh The monitor you chose is quite expensive and the 3060ti won’t be able to get 144hz at 4K in most modern day games so you may want to downgrade the monitor.

Yes King Dranzer is right the cheapest I could find that monitor was 4.5k USD which is at least 3 times as much as your build and you won’t be able to even reach 4K 144hz. If you want 4K you might want to look into a monitor like the Asus TUF Gaming VG289Q it’s 4K 60hz 1ms. You might want to do 1080p gaming as well here is a good monitor for that is the AW2521HFL it has 240hz 1080p 1ms.
