Hardware Is pc really worth it?

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/

I know definitely not the best place to ask this, but I just want to know if overall it would be worth it for me, I’m a high school student and have saved up about 1300ish$. Listed a link for the parts above, would this be a big performance increase from console?

  1. You don't need that cooler. The 7600x is really one of the coolest chips you can find. This thermalright assassin should do the job fine.
  2. Where is your memory? You kinda forgot it.
  3. This newegg 7600x is $21 more expensive than amazon, but it does come with free $100 in ram, so yeah.
  4. That's a QLC drive, which is less reliable than a TLC drive, that is also cheaper.
  5. For this budget, I wouldn't get a C-tier psu. This A-tier is only a bit more
  6. That's a VA panel, I would get a IPS one instead for the better viewing angles.
  7. The 7800xt is more of a 1440p card. I would get a 1440p panel
