This might be the best CPU/cooler/RAM/motherboard bundle that's come along in some time considering recent RAM pricing. Hopefully you've already got your own storage. And notably, the CPU supports integrated graphics so you don't need a GPU to get started with this solution.
The Op may want to trim and label some of the title and copy details of the items in the main listing.
This is a strong AM5 starter bundle centered on the Ryzen 5 9600X, with integrated graphics so it can boot without a separate GPU. The motherboard and DDR5 6000 memory are the main value here, especially with current RAM pricing, and the 65 watt CPU pairs reasonably well with the B650M board. The main caveat is that the free Cooler Master 240 Elite liquid cooler appears to have come and gone, so the deal may now be just CPU, board, and RAM. The Gigabyte board also has some reported reliability and support concerns, making this best for buyers comfortable with a few tradeoffs.
Upgraders who already have a cooler and storage, because the CPU is bare and the bundle is strongest when you can reuse parts.
Small-form-factor builders using a 65W processor, because the motherboard is considered decent for the 9600X and the platform suits lower-wattage chips.
No longer reliably. The cooler auto-added at first, but later cart checks showed only the free RAM adding while the AIO did not, and the bundle page stopped showing the free gift cooler. The CPU-only bundle still appears to be available, but the cooler offer looks expired or out of stock.
Yes. The motherboard + RAM portion was still being offered for about $109 plus tax, and some buyers used that route when the full cooler bundle disappeared. Ordering separately can cost more than the combo, though.
Yes for a 65W CPU like the 9600X, but it is not the best choice for higher-wattage processors. The board also has 4 SATA ports, so it can work fine for storage-heavy builds unless you need more than four drives.
There are reports of sleep-related crashes, early Expo RAM overclocking trouble before BIOS updates, and poor Gigabyte support reputation. The board can still be usable, but those are the main caveats to know before buying.

FWIW, that mobo has quite a few seriously bad reviews and Gigabyte customer service doesn't have a great reputation.
I have a similar motherboard, I got from a MicroCenter bundle. It's the B650 Gaming X AX V2. probably similar to this one. Overall, it's been fine. But I've experienced two issues. Every once in a while, when it goes to sleep, it crashes. So I'll come back to a completely turned off computer that did not shut down safely. Early on, before firmware updates for the BIOS, I had trouble getting my RAM to overclock with Expo profiles. So, I would not willingly choose another Gigabyte motherboard. But I'm also not looking to replace this one.
The motherboard is decent for 9600x since it's only 65 watt. It might not be a good idea to pair with high wattage CPU's.Another is you can also only do Motherboard + Ram too which is $109 + taxes which is a good deal too considering the Ram prices.Or do all 4 for $293 and additionally do Mothrbooard + Ram for $109. Then sell the motherboard for $90. That way you end up with 32GB ram.
Can you do RAM only for $50? ;-)

Builders starting a new AM5 desktop without a graphics card, because the CPU supports integrated graphics and can boot without a GPU.
Small-form-factor builders using a 65W processor, because the motherboard is considered decent for the 9600X and the platform suits lower-wattage chips.
NAS builders needing four SATA drives, because the motherboard has four SATA ports like a full-size board.
Buyers expecting the free liquid cooler to be included, because the bundle can lose the AIO and the offer may be dead.
Shoppers who want a trouble-free motherboard brand, because this board has bad reviews and Gigabyte support has a poor reputation.
Builders pairing this board with a high-wattage processor, because the motherboard may not be a good match for hotter CPUs.
Storage-heavy NAS builders with more than four drives, because you will need a PCIe SATA controller once you exceed four bays.
