What's it for, with what monitor (resolution & refresh rate or make and model), what's the budget and can you also post the configuration link

My first thoughts would be to rebalance the CPU/Motherboard choices, look at a 500Gb operating system and separate M2 for game storage etc and reduce the PSU...its a pretty big overshoot.

RAM is likely excessive unless youre also considering video editing and stuff like that, 16Gb pretty much covers everything for gaming (unless you do a lit of simulator games like MSFS 2020 for example)

I think you can redistibute your budget far more effectively that what youve choosen, a lot of components dont really match up well and wont deliver on your end experience in the way I think you are anticipating.

Do you have a budget in mind? What else can you tell us about your uses?
