Someone helped me out before for some parts and I am currently working on getting them, but I was also looking for maybe some more parts if anyone can help?

It generally depends on your budget. You've clearly seen that upgrading your CPU (and therefore motherboard and RAM) is your priority compared with the rest of the build. That could easily be a decent upgrade as it is. You could aim to get a solid NVME SSD as a boot drive, buy a better GPU. Like I said, it is very budget dependent.

How "Up-to-Date" are you trying to go? Because if you want to be up there you're going to need about 8,000 USD. With that in mind, what exactly are you aiming at in price? What is your end game, do you care about your audio, do you actually still use your Optical Drive? Do you want a headset or headphones (recommend headphones because gaming headsets are complete garbage and love to lie.) Do you want to overclock at all? Do you already have those parts you listed out? What about keyboard and mouse? RGB? Case? Do you care to stay with AMD over Intel, what about Nvidia over AMD?

pcpartpicker.com/list/38kg29

This list is an entire rig, from monitor and mouse to graphics card and audio. Even thermal paste. All with the mind you'll be doing some overclocking, work and/or gaming. 3 TB of SSD performance and price, a good HDD for general storage and all liquid cooling for the CPU and GPU to give you more headroom and performance to work with. It's not to the tip of the mountain, but you're a few steps away from it.

I can very easily recommend your hopes and dreams. Only for you to check out the price tag to it, or even find yourself looking at that price and saying, "Oh, well I already have a few or a bunch of these things. So I just need... this and that."

Whatever case makes you happy frankly then, in terms of PSU, unless your PSU is over 5 years old, no real need to upgrade. But if you plan to upgrade the rest of the setup I would first get your wattage for such via PCPartPicker and go from there with an addition of 100-250 watts as a means of overclocking headroom if even desired. If nothing more than to avoid over drawing and your hardware bottle necking since it doesn't have the power to boost. For fans, basically the world agrees on Noctua at the end of the day. Price, performance. No one can match them outright even now. Less you want RGB then your options explode, but corsair and EKWB, Thermaltake seem to be where everyone falls. Plenty of options though that can be better for quiet operation, thermal improvement, rgb, and styling.
