I'm gearing up to build my first PC and aiming for a budget of around 1500 CAD. However, I'm finding that I'm going over budget. I'm open to suggestions on how to cut costs or enhance my build. If anyone has tips or recommendations, I'd greatly appreciate it!

If you're trying to stick to that 1500 CAD budget, consider swapping in the RX 9060 XT 16GB graphics card. You might find it for a good price, and it can save you about $250. Also, you could explore buying a used AM4 CPU like the 5600 or 5700X for more savings!
Switching to the RX 9060 XT could definitely be beneficial; it's a great option and can help you stay within your budget. I also found an alternative setup that includes a stronger CPU if you're interested in spending a little more for better performance.
Those parts look solid! Also, I agree about choosing a better PSU; you can likely get a good deal on something like the be quiet! Pure Power series.

Yeah, I think my list has the AM4 with a 5600X already. Thanks for the tip!
