Assembling a PC is much easier than it used to be. MSI Mobo, DDR5 RAM, 4000 Series GPU and you can get one of those WD Black 2TB M2 SSD for about $100. When I bought the board and CPU the shop mounted the chip and updated the BIOS for me. No worry about bending socket pins.
I enjoyed it myself...

my friend ordered one from amazon a200, has ryzen 16 core, 32gb, 3080 gpu.
nothing but problems.
the ordered unit the gpu failed after 1 month
got an RMA replacement unit that came and was slow, the fans were fucked up on the unit, ended up sending that back for a 3rd RMA which came this week.
Set it up for him, couldnt connect to wifi wouldnt let you pick a network, managed to hardwire plug into router and set it up.
Windows wasnt activated so i had to use one my own oem keys.
The system top fan is super loud even when jusrt idle, i thought it maybe icue, but when uninstalled the fan was still loud, so it had nothing to do with icue.
You cant even sleep in the same room asa the machnine because of it being so loud.
It works aside fromt the super loud top fan, he really doesnt want to send back for a 4th unit.
I suggested maybe taking the ryzen cpu out, memory, gpu, and ssd and build his own system with those parts.
