Tips for Saving Money on My Gaming PC Build

Hey everyone! I'm in the process of building a new gaming PC and would love some advice on where I can save money. Here's the parts list I'm considering: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/user/dyl4/saved/BG6ndC. I'm aiming to game at 1440p, primarily playing titles like WoW, Apex, BG3, and Hell Divers 2. I'm also a bit stuck on what power supply to choose. I'm looking for the best performance per dollar, so if you have suggestions on how to trim the budget or what other hardware options to consider, that would be awesome! I'm particularly interested in getting an AM5 setup, but I'm not located near a micro center (I'm in Canada). Thanks for your help!

Your parts list is private, so I canโ€™t see what youโ€™ve chosen. Make sure the list is public so we can help out!

Your build looks solid, but I noticed youโ€™re missing a case. If you're looking to save a bit of money, you might want to consider dropping from 2TB storage down to 1TB, which can help cut costs. Also, for just a little more, you might want to think about switching to a 5070 Ti instead of the 9070 XTโ€”it offers good performance for the price!

GamingGuru92: Iโ€™ll definitely consider the storage change, thanks! Can you tell me more about why the 5070 Ti might be a better choice than the 9070 XT?
