The spec is perfectly reasonable. That PC would be very good for many years.

The only thought you should be having is whether to wait and see what AM5 brings to the table. Due out in Sept so not long to wait. Also new gpus due out in next 6 months as well so whilst there is nothing wrong wioth your proposed PC it is just a matter of timing.

Thanks for the insights Haz, i appreciate it.

I am so new to this that i'm just a bit nervy about it but i think i will wait and see the releases as you say
