Building new comp, hoping for advice

Wait till February when the Ryzen 7700X3D, 7900X3D and 7950X3D drop.

CPU intensive Games like wow drink up V cache like water in the desert. The more of it you have the better it is. CPU intensive PC games have a lot of randomness, which means that the CPU constantly needs to execute simple instructions. Without enough cache, your graphics card is forced to wait on your CPU as the instructions pile up and cause a bottleneck

Id advise staying away from intel considering this is the end of the line for their platform. With AM5 you have an upgrade path for at least 1-2 more generations of CPUs
