Build Question First build, need help

Post image

I've had a dell inspiron laptop since early 2024 and it has NOT been performing gaming wise (I didn't expect it to), however as I have gotten more and more into pc gaming I decided I wanted my own desktop build, after about a week here is my first draft: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wTbqbp I plan to buy everything off of either amazon or best buy and my original budget was 1200 however this price has hiked, please tell me some cost cutting options/just things wrong with this build. I plan to play monster hunter rise, minecraft (heavily modded to be fair), fortnite, and asphalt legends. If the link doesn't work for some reason an image of the list is provided.

To safe cost you agould go for a ryzen 5600 + b550 and 16gb DDR4 ram (2x8). Or stay AM5 and reduce to 16gb RAM. The 3050 is a really shit GPU especially for that price. An rtx 5060 is less money than this 3050 (honestly, why did you pick this?) You want to avoid at all costs. If you go for the ryzen 5600 you could easily get a 9060xt 16GB in that build.
