The TUF is an ok motherboard. I haven't checked the vrm but I think it is ok for the 7950x and I guess you won't be overclocking.
Yes, you would need ddr5 since 7000 series CPUs don't support ddr4, and if you plan on going 128gb ram at some point get 32gb ram sticks so you can upgrade from 64 to 128 by just adding 2 more sticks.
NH-D15 is their biggest cooler so it should be ok. Make sure to get a case that supports the height of the cooler heatsink+fans. A really good case is the Fractal design torrent. It is a bit more expensive but the quality is outstanding and the airflow is fantastic!
I have one and I am really pleased with it.
As for the monitor I could give you 10 recommendations but it would be great if you can give an estimated budget/price range for the monitor.
Best,

I was afraid I would miss the 7950 deals so I made a purches for most parts expcet for the case, moniter and GPU

Refurbished: CORSAIR RMx Series (2021) RM850x CP-9020200-NA/RF 850 W ATX12V / EPS12V 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular < I just notcied the word Refurbished when copying, hope it turns out okay
As for the case and the monitor, I have to stick with my local options which are limited.
A case i found for a 100$ is called Lian li lancool 2 mesh, I couldn't decide on how the components fit into it so I have not bought it yet
I also found a monitor called odyssey g7 curved ( lc27g75tqsmxue ), Is it good for archviz ? it is not exactly cheap ( 600$ ) but it is not gonna cost an extra 130$ for shipping because it is available locally. So you can say my budget is 400-450$ if you can recommend a better monitor
As for GPU, what do you think is the sweet spot for a gpu that can navigate 3dmax veiw port smoothly when working on big scenes ? < my definition of big scenes is around 20m polygons
Is the 3060 a good option still ? I rather not pay more than I definitely need for GPU, budget is tight
Thank you so much for your help
