Does this PC build look good?
Greetings,
I have never built a PC before, so I wanted to get some feedback on the parts I choose.
CPU: Core i7-11700K Rocket Lake 3.6GHz Eight-Core LGA 1200 Boxed Processor - Heatsink Not Included
Motherboard: Z590-PLUS TUF Gaming WiFi Intel LGA 1200 ATX Motherboard
Ram: VENGEANCE RGB PRO SL 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4-3600 PC4-28800 CL18 Dual Channel Desktop Memory Kit CMH32GX4M2D36KW - White
CPU cooler: Kraken X53 240mm Water Cooling Kit
Video card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti VENTUS 2X LHR Overclocked Dual-Fan 8GB GDDR6 PCIe 4.0 Graphics Card
Case: H510 Flow Tempered Glass ATX Mid-Tower Computer Case - White
Power supply: RMx Series RM750x 750 Watt 80 Plus Gold ATX Fully Modular Power Supply
SSD: 980 Pro SSD 1TB M.2 NVMe Interface PCIe Gen 4x4 Internal Solid State Drive with V-NAND 3 bit MLC Technology (MZ-V8P1T0B
Hard drive: BarraCuda 4TB 5400RPM SATA III 6Gb/s 3.5" Internal SMR Hard Drive
I tried building a PC that I considered mid-range. The CPU and motherboard are part of the current promotion, so I do not want to swap those out. I would prefer to keep the same case. Are there any parts, that are cheaper and work just as great? Also, do I need a liquid-cooled fan?

It looks fine to me other than the 11700k and you paying premium for corsair ram/psu. But I personally would go for the 3700x combo. While 11700k isn't that much superior than 3700x, amd mobo gives you headroom on future cpu upgrade(5900x/5800x3d). Also you won't even need a liquid cooler for 3700x and can straight up use the nice little rgb wraith prism.
