I think this is more like what’s commonly suggested here, though I haven’t changed much.

Better case, PSU, two SSD’s instead of one, no need for the wifi card as it’s built into the motherboard, 7600X is out of stock so I had to select another, so went for the 7600. Can’t advise on GPU, maybe search 4060 in here and see if people are suggested for an equivalent RX card
