So, I have a not so unique problem. I want to build a PC with decent power and good Linux support but local parts are hard to get and importing is a mess.

Local shops don't have much

https://www.scanmalta.com/shop/ this is the only local shop with parts in stock, and even they only have 1 amd GPU.

I'm looking for both amd CPU and GPU. At least 16 GB of ram and ideally as cheap as I can. Anyone have any advice to give me?

I'm aiming for something midrange-ish

I plan to use Linux mint or some other Ubuntubased distro, how would arcch base go?

Arch isn't too hard with the AUR offering packages that said I only stuck out with Manjaro. They had a GUI to help with the install.

I personally wouldn't advise using it if you are new to Linux. I use Linux Mint and it's been amazing for my work load. (Cad video editing and games.)
