Your prices are really inflated. Here's a smattering of parts from PCPP: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tRW3VY

Note the memory is 2133. This total comes out to ~$2300. Add a mobo, the cpu, and a monitor, you're looking at a grand total of about $4500.

I actually forgot the motherboard in my build that’s another $500 since Xeon-W is only supported on the workstation chipsets.

The cooler won’t be enough, the case is pretty low end and the PSU isn’t something you want to touch the EVGA G2 line is pretty bad.

You can easily do 70% for 50% of the cost but that isn’t the point.
