I'm new to PC building and have put together a budget build for about $1.5k AUD after doing some research. I'm looking to play games like the Yakuza series, Valorant, House Flipper, and other cozy titles on Steam. Since this is my first build, I'd really appreciate your input on whether any of the parts seem overpriced or if there are more affordable alternatives. Also, I need recommendations for a budget monitor that would go well with this setup. Thanks in advance for any constructive feedback!

If you're willing to swap some parts, you might be able to snag a better GPU. I found a build you could check out that keeps you under $1.5k while improving performance, though it might not be the best looking setup. Here’s the link: [PCPartPicker List](https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/ZJRvxg).
I tried accessing your part list, but it seems to be private. You might want to check the sharing settings so we can give better feedback!
I noticed that you're using the P3 Plus, which has QLC flash. It doesn't last as long and slows down over time. I'd recommend switching to a drive with TLC flash like the Kioxia Exceria Plus G3 or the WD Blue SN580. They’re better choices and won’t break the bank!
Thanks for the heads up! The WD Blue SN580 looks like a solid option for the budget.

Sorry about that! Is it working now?
