Hey everyone! I'm finally ready to upgrade from my aging i3 and 1050Ti after seven years. I'm aiming to go fully AMD for my next build, ideally a prebuilt because of RAM prices (though I do have 24GB of DDR4 that might work for me). I'll primarily be playing games like Warframe, The Witcher, and some ARPGs. My budget is around €1200. Space is a bit tight in my room, so a thin, high case is preferred.
Right now, I'm considering a few options: 1) Ryzen 5 9600X paired with a 9060XT and 32GB DDR5, but I haven't settled on a PSU and motherboard yet. 2) Ryzen 7 5700X with a 9060XT, 32GB DDR4 3200MT, an MSI Pro B550 motherboard, and a 650W MSI MAG A650BNL PSU. 3) Ryzen 7 700 with a 9060XT, 32GB DDR5 6000MT, an Asus Prime B650, and a Deepcool PL650D 650W PSU.
I'm still gathering more information on the first build. Thanks a lot for your help!

I think the first build you’re considering looks solid, but definitely be cautious with that PSU. The one you're looking at in the last build may be decent but could potentially be a risk if it fails. It’s crucial to not skimp on a PSU with your other high-quality components. What more details do you need to decide on a build?
Regarding your question about the prebuilt—it's really hard to say unless you get all the specs laid out. Also, I checked out the build you shared on PCPartPicker, and while it’s a little pricier than the first prebuilt option, it might offer better value in the long run. If you're using your 24GB DDR4 RAM, just make sure it’s compatible with your chosen components!
