How tech savvy are you? You ready to troubleshoot DDR5 and a brand new AMD Platform?
If you want a PC now, get a PC now but be aware that things are going to change in the future and you're no longer going to be on an absolute top spec computer and something that'll match your build will come in at cheaper. That being said, what are you going to use it for?
Additionally disregarding all of the issues with waiting vs buying now. Your build is okay... definitely consider a different motherboard depending on purpose or any specific set of requirements of the PC will be able to advise. Then that CPU cooler man... its decent for budget builds but not appropriate for something of this class.
I'd say I'm tech savvy, but my hardware research these days is focused on other types of hardware, so my knowledge of personal computers is limited at this point. If I only have two hours a day to myself, I'd rather spend it gaming or reading than tweaking my computer. I would rather pay someone to advise me or do those things for me. Have enough research to do as it is.
It will be used for:
Gaming
Several linux VM's for assessments (only start them when required)
Research
Thank you everyone for all the input. Different opinions \recommendations was exactly what I was looking for. any CPU cooler\mobo recommendations?
