I'm working on getting a build together to buy and build in the next two or three weeks. I know it could use some tweaks, but I tried to research and put together a decent list.

Budget is approximately $1200, but can be a little flexible,. Micro center locations is Minneapolis (St. Louis Park).

Games will be a variety of older and some newer games. Notable ones are Elden Ring, No Mans Sky, Halo and a variety of gamepass games some old and some new. I dont need the highest settings and FPS, but I would mainly like to not worry about being able to play anything with good settings for a couple years.

Monitors and accessories are not needed, though monitor specs are not available as I got them from someone else and will be getting a new one later in 2023. Not really looking for 4K.

For the case I am not set on this one, but I am leaning towards a white case with some RGB.

I have ethernet access, but I also would be interested in getting a wifi/Bluetooth card or motherboard that has it onboard, though that can be a later purchase as it is not vital.

Thanks in advance and I can provide more details or clarifications if needed.
