The build is very unbalanced unfortunately, but we can fix that.

Firstly, what is your uses (any streaming planned) and monitor?

Assuming 1440p 144hz monitor... but this has no rgb.

Thank you. I have no streaming planned nor don't really care about RGB that why I didn't go for it. No offense.

I'm wondering why did spec down the RAM to 16GB? I've noted you increased the speed. Is 16 GB 3600 better than 32GB 3200? I went for Red Devil as the 6700 XT wasn't in stock. I really don't need a 1TB SSD.

32GB of ram wont be used unless you play MSFS20, so 16 is a better choice.

Red devil, if you will get it earlier then swap it back i guess.

1TB SSD, that is what will make all your games load fast. I personally consider that an absolute essential part of a gaming pc. A faster one is a luxury, but a pcs one is an absolute must imo, loading off a HDD puts you behind consoles (which now also use an ssd for game storage).

If your PC is for gaming, you will see enormous benefits from keeping the games on an SSD rather than on your hard drive. The best configuration is a super-fast M.2 SSD (like the 980 Pro) for Windows and core applications, a cheaper but still very fast M.2 (like the PCS one) for storing games, and if desired a hard drive for storing files in the long term. Buying a computer for this kind of price and keeping games on a hard drive is not good value for money in 2021.

That sums it up nicely& re @Ash_ dropping RAM to 16GB,apart from some sims very few games need 32
