Frankly, these days you’re legitimately better off buying a pre-made system. Individual parts costs are through the roof and so it’s actually cheaper to buy pre-made now.
Well, I took Tobar’s advice and bought a prebuilt PC. I bought it on Amazon Prime Day this week when it was on sale for $650 (instead of it’s current $750 price).

It comes with a 1TB 7200RPM HDD, but I think I’m going to migrate my drives from my old PC into my new on instead. The one major niggle I have is that the case isn’t designed to have an optical drive (ie. Bluray burner), but I suppose I can get an external enclosure for my burner and plug it in through USB. After all, the only thing I use my Bluray burner for is ripping my physical movies and shows and burning fanedits.
