Is this a decent build? And how do I make it cheaper

Hello @KiddScrvb
Taking a look at your build and I definitely see some cost savings that could be done.
I first noticed your motherboard was definitely of the higher end, and can definitely be cheaper even if you want to keep WiFi. You can also lower your RAM size as well, unless you are doing some activity that requires 32GB of RAM, doing 16GB (2x8GB) is a great starting point and the build can expand to 32GB if needed in the future. The last thing you can do is remove the AMD Wraith Prism cooler as your processor comes with a Wraith Stealth cooler. It is a bit of a weaker cooler but it's meant to properly cool the 5600X processor as long as you are not overclocking the build.
Here is what I came up with; https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=ecf842d0-6dd3-41b2-af37-0a4b2f4f8aeb
