Well for me I have: RAM - 32gb ddr5 corsair vengeance MOBO - gigabyte b650 aorus elite CPU - AMD Ryzen 9 7900 GPU - sapphire Raedon rx 7900 xtx CASE - corsair airflow 4700d PSU - gol 850w can't remember the model atm COOLER - Ek nucleus aio 240

That should leave you well within budget depending on storage. I have 2 Samsung 2tb m.2s. But you may not need that much. I run popos on it and have had no issues with it at all.

I bought everything listed during black Friday minus the case and psu because I pulled those out of my old rig. Total cost for everything but the case and psu, but including storage was about 1,900 after tax.

Edit: I see you mentioned not being great with hardware. You should check out pc part picker. It's good for compatability. For the most part. It will NOT account for actual dimensions as they relate to the case, fans, RAM. Etc. You should absolutely read up on your preferred case dimensions, length of your graphics card, and fan size (especially in the case of using an aio liquid cooler). That said if you have room for it I do love the corsair airflow case. Plenty of room, good thermals, easy clean. Only complaint is that the psu slot felt small and it is a pain to get in and out. I guess Ideally you aren't taking your psu out often so it won't matter.
