Hi,

What's your budget and what will you be using the PC for?
Can you include the price for the configuration above and also its configurable link?

Are you buying this on finance? I generally wouldn’t recommend getting your monitor through PCS as you can generally get a better selection and value pick by shopping around, but if you do want to buy everything in one place I can understand that too.
I would be leaning towards an AM5 build for a gaming system, the 12900k isn’t really a gaming CPU and comes with a heavy premium. Intel 13th gen is on the horizon though if you wanted to wait for third party reviews prior to making an informed decision.
