Hey everyone! I'm sharing my current PC build and would really appreciate your feedback. I'm particularly looking for suggestions on how to cut costs while still maintaining quality or any recommendations for better components that are cheaper. My main uses for the desktop include gaming on Steam (like Final Fantasy, Total War, and the upcoming GTA VI) and streaming on Discord. Here's the link to my build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/6tqQJn. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hey there! I noticed you included an HDD in your build. Is it leftover from an old system? If you're looking for more storage, consider just bumping your SSD up to 2TB instead! That way, you can keep your OS on the SSD and handle everything else on there too.
Hey! That PSU seems way overpriced at $200. It might be worth checking if it's a typo. If you're around a $1000 budget, I would recommend a big upgrade: ditch the CPU cooler since it comes with one, swap for a cheaper case, and grab a more affordable power supply. You could also upgrade to a 9060XT 16GB GPU which is significantly faster than the RX 6600!

It says $72 on my end for the PSU, so maybe it’s different for you?
I want to keep the OS on the SSD and just use the HDD for everything else.
