Unfortunately a power cut killed my somewhat aged i5-2500k system - at 9 years old it had done well, only recently struggling with RDR2.
So now need a replacement with whatever is currently in stock. Will be salvaging from the i5 system:
250gb OS SSD
3tb HDD
RX-480 AMD graphics card
Raijintek Themis Direct Contact CPU Cooler
Thinking of purchasing the following, needing a new high airflow case with front ports and dust filters, although not sure if psu is overkill. Have I missed anything? Cpu paste?

Got one rather frustrated teenager as well now - lol!
