I'll post the full build below. I'll be buying it likely piecemeal to find some deals. Biggest struggle I'm still having is what wireless headphones to get. I'd like ones that would work as regular headphones too so not too gamey. I like the look of the razer barracuda pro but reviews are mixed. Goal is widescreen 1440p with great FPS.

Caveats about the parts list: pretty much sold on the 7800x3d, case, cooler and 7900xtx(4080s are currently $200+ more and don't seem worth it.)
I'll get whichever mATX b650 chipset with wifi onboard is a good deal at the time, I haven't seen much to split those boards in the 200ish range.
RAM I'll track prices but either go 6000mHz with CL30 or 6400MHz with CL32.
PSU whichever 80+ gold 850W modular power supply is a good deal.
Storage: not tied to this one but seems best bang for the buck.

Also any input on good head phones

Where are you located? If you’re in the states and have a microcenter nearby they have combo deals going all the time.
Luckily I'm about 5 miles from one. Unfortunately I haven't seen any x3d cpu ever get bundled but I'll probably still get the CPU and mobo from there for the $20 and my case there is a lot cheaper.
If you've seen a deal I'm missing let me know but I haven't seen a 7800x3d deal
