[SOLVED] Higher end build

[Psutton1160]

Hello,

I am wanting to go a little crazy with a gaming computer build for once. Most all other builds I have done have pretty much just been budget builds. So far all I have bought is
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C89G9QDK/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Amazon.com

will swap fans out with RGB fans and wanting to use an AO1 for the first time.
Mother board I am looking at is
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BFZYB6QW/ref=ewc_pr_img_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
It has been 5 or 6 years since my last build, so I am pretty ignorant on current gen Components.
only thing I am planning on recycling from my current build is a
RTX 3060 TI, until I can save up for a better card.
Budget around 2 to 3K.
Please advise.
Thanks,

I would not buy that board. Super overpriced, for what it is. $3k will get you a killer system, including GPU.
