I've updated my parts list for a budget PC after some helpful comments from my last post. I'm completely new to this and would love your insights on whether I'm on the right track with my selections. Here's my list if you want to take a look: [PC Builder Link](https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=c0f55456-fbf7-452a-9cd6-eac40613007a). Any feedback is appreciated!

Definitely look for a GPU with more than 8GB of VRAM, like the 9060XT with 16GB. Used GPUs can also be a great deal right now!
I did a similar build and went for the 7700x bundle with 32GB RAM, plus a 3060. It cost me around $900. If the difference isn't too big compared to your choice, it might be worth it!
I’d suggest going for a Radeon 9060XT with 16GB instead of the 5060. And don’t forget to grab a gold-rated PSU for better efficiency!
You might want to consider getting two 16GB sticks of RAM instead of one 32GB stick. Running in dual channel can help improve performance!
You can snag a solid PC for about $1400 on places like Facebook Marketplace. Offer them $1000 in cash and you could end up with a much better setup for your budget!
Thanks for the tip! I'll keep an eye out for that.
