I think what I would do in your position is
:
check the rating of your PSU just in case
upgrade the GPU and storage
upgrade the PSU and
/or case if necessary
wait and save money
upgrade to AM5 motherboard
, X3D CPU
, DDR5 RAM
, and a better CPU cooler

Cooler makes sense
The case I picked was because my desk has unfortunate size limits
Good to know

a 360mm cooler is overkill for a 7800x3d
