You can pair the processor with any B650 or B850 chipset motherboard available to you. Where are you located? What is your budget for a motherboard purchase? What is your preferred sit for purchase?

i would not want to be stuck with B840 motherboard with AM5 build to be honest
it´s as much expensive as some B650 motherboards or B850 even
it is basically "facelifted" old B550 chipset and it doesn´t even support cpu overclocking
also you are stuck with pcie 4.0 for both the gpu and primary m.2 slot (not such a big deal but still)
if these boards would sell for $90 they may have been viable budget options
but for $140 not so much .

Either of the MSI PSU's in the top 3 listed in this shortlist;
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/products/power-supply/#sort=price&A=750000000000,2200000000000&e=4&p=1

FYI, the cooler is unnecessary as you get a stock cooler with the processor. You could also get a cheaper tower style cooler unless you plan to swap out the 7600 for something much more powerful.
