Unless I’m mistaken, there’s 3 ways of doing this:

- no budget, just vibes.
- bang for buck build
- super budget

I’d go for the middle one!

I went bang for buck, but then the pretties take over and yes, instead of normal quiet fans, I bought the fans with the RGB, even though my case came with great fans. And then you think, well, I'll not get the stock GFX, because the slightly more expensive one had better cooling, and then well the cooler itself, I could have had a silver great one for £50 but no, it doesn't match... and before you know it, you're another £200 down and I realise I'm well in the "no budget, just vibes" camp.

Yeah I wouldn't buy an Asus product these days, they seem super shitty. It's annoying as I only found out how shitty they were after I did my last rebuild around an Asus mobo and there was a bunch of early bios issues over volting AMD cpus.
