Building my first gaming PC in a couple of decades - any suggestions?

Build Help

Hi all,

I'm specing up a gaming PC, but I'm pretty out of touch. I've done a fair bit of Googling, and found a lot of posts from this sub that've helped, but was hoping for some feedback on how well/poorly I've done:

This will mostly be for gaming, I expect. Maybe for running some VMs/containers when I'm tinkering with new tools, but I expect gaming to be considerable more taxing than that. My goal was for something mid-high end (not a 4090) that will probably last a few years before I really want to upgrade anything.

I'm tech savvy, but haven't worked with hardware in a long long time. I think my last GPU was 256MB, so I'm well out of the loop. Happy to hear any thoughts or suggestions to help steer me. Is anything a waste of money? Anything too low/high end compared to the rest?
