Overspending on a retail 9800X3D, NVME, PSU, and slightly on the RAM. The non-SE Phantom Spirit is a bit heavier for the same price and therefore offers theoretical superior mounting and cooling dissipation for the same price.
A don't know about spending $150+ on a case, but it's a quality model and those are a personal decision.
Spending over $200 on a B850 is very seldom worth it. Check the feature set of the mobo and against your original pick and see if you are missing anything you want. In fact if you don't need 3 NVME slots and 2 is enough you can save another $40 with this board:
