I've been toying around with the idea of building a new PC after a long time of using a gaming laptop. I don't need anything cutting-edge, just some gaming and movie watching and what not. Looking for any advice, noticeable bottlenecks, or glaring red flags would be great.

mother board and power supply seem a bit expensive. You could bump up to a 6800XT / 7700XT pretty easily if you skimped a bit on those. Case too but sometimes the aesthetic is worth it.
