Question PC Build Help

I'm currently transitioning to PC from PS4. I enjoy gaming (mainly Apex Legends) and I also design shirts and other apparel on my old laptop (using photoshop/GIMP/Blender). My equipment now is incredibly outdated and I decided instead of buying a new laptop and upgrading to PS5 I'd like to get a good PC that can handle the mainly everything I do. I've been watching a lot of YouTube instructions on building so I feel pretty confident on the labor, but can someone check my current build list and let me know of any problems I might encounter or if any changes are recommended. My budget is around 1,000-1,400. I'm hoping for something that visually can compare to the PS5 or at least come close.

This board comes with Gigabyte Q-Flash so bios won't be a problem. The 120mm fan goes inside the back of that case for a rear exhaust fan.
