I am a novice looking to have a decent gaming machine built to play WOW - Shadowlands and perhaps some other popular titles in the future. I would like to know if there is anything I have overkill on. Is there something I should cut back on and improve on another part? Is there anything I can skimp on here? Is there anything listed that I simply don't need? I am trying to stay at or under 1750. Still have to pay to have it built and buy a monitor so I have to set a limit somewhere. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hello, @Boemonte I made a few changes to your build.I would suggest going with a bit less RAM as 16GB is plenty for most all gaming. I did swap your CPU as we've seen some incredible performance from the 5600X. I'd also recommend waiting for the release of the RX 6000 series if you can. AMD is doing some really impressive things right now and I'm very excited to see what performance the new GPUs will offer.If waiting isn't your thing, your build is very solid! Again, I'd still reduce the RAM to 16GB, but otherwise, I think you're set!Hope this helps!
