The Case I am linking right now is the Segotep Slath Mini ITX Double Curved Glass Case. It's $279 and looks like a coffee maker but I like it for some reason. It appears that my Heatsink radiator, GPU, PSU, and everything will fit nice and compactly. Please share your thoughts?

instead of us having to click on the images so we can see the bigger picture with a gander but the case isn't available on PCPP. How much are you sourcing the RTX3060Ti for?

Seems like you've made your mind up and you want others to hear others agree to it. IMHO, you should build what fits your budget. The build looks fine to me.
 
7700x is not that worth buying in my region, it's ¥1500+ for it's produce has stopped. 7700 is ¥1300,9600x is ¥1260, and I think you may pick the cheapest one among 7700,7700x and 9600x. Remember, don't pick a 6400MT/s mem if you decide to use a 7000-series ryzen CPU.

mpg b650i is fine, but it's "clear CMOS" button on the IO area is VERY HIGH(about three times the height of a normal backport button), and extremely easy for mistaken touching. Imagine that you are plugging a USB disk onto the backport IO, and you mistakenly touched the clear cmos button and your PC immediately shut down, causing you lose your unsaved work. Personally I used a scissor to cut the button's overflow part.

Segotep Slath is cool and there's a similar case called Jonsbo TK-0 which is only ¥600(about $100?), it's cheaper, check if it's available in your region.

Thanks, I could not figure out how to get the BB code. I can only find the gpu on eBay from Japanese sellers, do you think that would be an issue? https://www.ebay.com/itm/1867467572...M_0u0keSLq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

While I do want others to validate my thoughts, I’m more searching for any mistakes I’ve made. Is there a better gpu I can buy? Is this the right CPU choice? Is there a glaring omission that someone else can see?

It helps to get your feedback.

Thank you for pointing that out. Lutfij recommended

G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory and I selected that other one because it was a white color​


I’ll stick with the 6000 mt/s mem kit.

It also sounds like you made a good case for me to buy the 7700 instead of the 7700x. Looks like I would get nearly identical performance, at a lower cost, with less heat generated in this small build.

Thanks for the option to consider the jonsbo tk0. I also see theirs a tk-1. I’m not sure if they are better than the segotep slath but they are comparable and cheaper. I’ll look into that.
