I'm looking for some feedback on my potential PC build. My workplace offers points to spend in a company store, and I've got some good parts available there. Here's the full list of components I'm considering, along with their prices. Any thoughts?

This setup will definitely work, but I'd suggest looking for a better CPU cooler. The one you’ve listed might not do the job well enough for a high-end CPU like yours.
What purpose do you have in mind for this build? It makes a difference, especially when picking the right parts!
The 4060 GPU might not be the best choice, especially given the price of the rest of your components and the fact you're using a 1440p monitor. If this build is mainly for gaming, I'd recommend going for a cheaper CPU and putting the savings into a better GPU. Plus, you need a dual tower cooler at least, because using a $40 cooler for a $550 CPU is risky!
I hear you on the GPU choice; it’s the best available in your store, right? You might want to wait for better options to come in. And yeah, definitely keep an eye on the CPU cooler!
