Good call, you wouldn't need the cooler. Wasn't sure if the CPU comes packaged with one but apparently it does.

Tbh if I wanted to spend a bit more I personally would go for a 4TB HDD too instead of 2TB and maybe a 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD alongside the 32GB RAM

I made a build that would have included all of that alongside a Ryzen 7 5800X but that build would have been around 1000$ so quite a stretch from the 800$ mark.

(Tbh it would still fair better than the PS5 Pro if you were to purchase PS+ Essential for more than 3 years - with Extra and Premium it's even worse and since PC games are usually cheaper the free games & discounts don't really seal the deal for me)

Free games are also available at PCs (Epic Store every week, FOSS games like 0ad, and sailing the high seas).

True that, and Cloud Saves, Multiplayer and all these perks are free too
