[SOLVED] Please help with new AMD build

[EW753]

I am doing a new build and have been purchasing items as I have seen them on sale. Please help me to make sure everything is compatible and this will be a good/reliable plug and play build that will (hopefully) last for years to come. I do know that I will need to update the BIOS on my motherboard to be compatible with the CPU (both have already been purchased). I have read up on it and it looks easy enough to do (the motherboard has a button to make it easy). I have tried to follow the format posted in the forum sticky and have posted a pcpartpicker.com link and a link to one item that did not show up on their website that I have already purchased. Thank you in advance for your help!

Approximate Purchase Date: Some items have already been purchased, remainder will be purchased when I get paid this coming week.
Budget Range: $2,500 total. Under 1k for the Items that I have left to purchase.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming
Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: New build, I have purchased some of thie items over the last couple of months as I found them on sale, so I will be limited on the build by the already purchased items.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes, I need to buy an OS
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: New Egg/Amazon, but will purchase from any reputable US-based business.
Location: Parkersburg, WV USA
Parts Preferences: Already purchased AMD CPU
Overclocking: Maybe if it is simple with software that is point and click, otherwise, no.
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: Games that I have been playing recently have been New World, Outriders and I still play Diablo 3 from time to time...don't judge me I would like this pc to last another 7+ years if possible.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My computer that I build 7 years ago is having trouble keeping up with the newer games.

Below is a link to the PC Part Picker List. The power supply that I already purchased did not come up on the list, so I hope it is compatible with the rest of the hardware that I purchased.

Everything looks compatible although you spent a lot of money on that board that could have went towards a larger SSD or gpu.

Thanks for looking, I got it on a combo deal with the GPU. what would you recommend as an OS, Windows 10 or 11? I am not sure if it is currently compatible with Windows 11.

Don't buy two sets of RAM assuming they will work as a set. Either buy a matched set of four or buy a set of matched higher density DIMMs.
I am of the opinion that two DIMMs for a CPU that was designed with dual channel memory controller is optimal.

I would do something more like this. Keeping the drives the same manufacturer, eliminates having 2 different management softwares.

2 x ram modules is better than 4x. Many boards slow down ram command rate to 2T from 1T with all slots populated.

I wasn’t aware of the memory issue, or that drives from different manufacturers would require multiple management softwares. Will make changes to these two items as per loganofhades suggestions above. Thank you all for your help, it is greatly appreciated!
