Been slowly upgrading a prebuilt from 2009. I've upgraded everything but the mobo, ram, cpu, and cooler. Was hoping someone could do a sanity check on my build to make sure it's good for a few years at least.

As the other commenter said, what is your use case?

Overall it looks solid, the CPU outpaces the GPU a little bit but if you plan to upgrade that in the future this is a great first upgrade.

You could probably go with air cooled but we're talking ~2-30$ of savings max for maybe more sound.

If you're making this for gaming get a 7700x3d

I'd highly suggest you get an nvme SSD at some point in time ideally in the 1-2tb range, it'll be a huge improvement you can notice right away.

Overall the build looks good, some min-maxing you could do but we'd need more info to be sure.

Oddly enough i don't see pc parts picker showing the 7700x3xd as an option.
