So I have the GPU and CPU sitting on my desk, but I kinda only knew I wanted these two parts without knowing what else I should get.
Which parts to complete the build would you buy?

This makes the most sense without cutting any corners, feel free to upgrade stuff if you want [https://pcpartpicker.com/list/8XJ4vj](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/8XJ4vj)
overpriced motherboard and cheapest 1000w chinese psu from gas station
an appropriate CPU cooler like or better than a Peerless Assassin 120 SE
3.0 version 850w power supply
B650E motherboard
32GB of 6000 CL30 RAM with AMD EXPO profile
at least 1 M.2 NVMe SSD
PC case of your choosing
Depends on what type of person you are when it concerns aesthetics. Do you want a certain type of case, RGB, etc… need more information on what you are going for.

Something like this?
Nice case, good cooler, quiet psu, good fans, good ssd, midrange mainboard, 32gb ram, maybe even 64… but get stuff, that is quiet, worst thing is a loud pc, -5 fps is no problem, but 5db more is annoying af

CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 ($120)
Mobo: Asus TUF Gaming X670-E Plus Wifi ($280)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 ($130)
Storage: WD Black SN850X 2 TB ($155)
PSU: Corsair RM850e ($115)

This leaves you $470 for a Monitor and peripherals. Choices for these will depend on what your needs are.
Cheers!
Edit: math
With $1400 for the rest, I might do something like this:

Lots and lots of rgb
FUNKO!
You got the expensive parts already where the hell do you expect to spend $1400
What monitor you got? I would spend most on monitor if that budget includes monitor too
Which CPU is that?
B650
A good PSU,
Ram 6000mhz cl30 expo timing
A good monitor over 144 hz 4k
And a good SSD
That’s an L.
I just got a new system with tgatcsame video card. It’s great
Use the rest of the money to buy a marble slab plus a glass shell and display them in there so you have a conversation piece when guests or friends arrive op.
Get the best rgb money can buy.
A nice motherboard and 850-1000W PSU.
You never want to buy shit motherboard on an expensive build unless you are going to be changing platforms soon.
Return the 4080 and get a radeon rx 7900 xtx
Best monitor you can afford
Hey! So you could buy the best of everything and probably still have some money left. I would actually suggest making a SFF (small for factor) pc! They are super fun to build and they don’t take up as much space on your desk. You have plenty of money to make one and my personal opinion is that they are way cooler than a normal big flashy build. Be prepared though as you might not have much money left if you go this route…
My exact same upgrade!
I also got a b650m ax gigabyte mobo, peerless assassin and 32gb cl32 6400 pny xlr8 ram
If you don’t have a good monitor absolutely spend on one BenQ mobiuz has dropped in price. I have 4k 144hz 32in best money I have spent.
