Does this build make sense? I feel like I'm overspending
Post Body

I have in fact read the rules.

Performance target

I am looking to play games at 1440p at 60FPS, even if I have to lower the graphics settings a bit.

I'll also use the machine for work and other tasks, but nothing that compares to games as far as performance requirements (but that's why I'll get a 1440p monitor, so that's the resolution I'd like to play games at). I will however need a fast SSD for the OS and applications, and at least 1TB of "slow" storage.

I am aiming for around 1500€, but really the target is the lowest price that meets specs. I am from Italy.

Edit: I found this new configuration with pcspecialist.it

They'll also build it for me. The GPU was pretty much the only thing they had.

Type Item
Case MID TOWER CORSAIR CARBIDE SERIESâ„¢ 275R
CPU CPU AMD Ryzen 5 3600X esa-core (3,8 GHz-4,4 GHz/36 MB CACHE/AM4)
Motherboard Gigabyte B450 AORUS ELITE: DDR4, USB 3.1
RAM DDR4 Corsair VENGEANCE 3200 MHz 16 GB (2 x 8 GB)
Video Card AMD RADEONâ„¢ RX 5600 XT 6 GB
Fast Storage SSD Samsung 860 EVO 2,5" 500 GB, SATA 6 Gb/s
Large Storage HDD SEAGATE BARRACUDA SATA-III 3,5" 2 TB, 6 GB/s, 7200 GIRI/MIN., 256 MB CACHE
PSU CORSAIR 650 W CV SERIESâ„¢ VS-650
TOTAL 1126€

The PSU is deliberately overpowered, since I want to leave open the option to upgrade the video card.

Below is the old configuration, disregard it.
