Import tax, to where?

USD isn't going to matter, unless you're buying in the US.
Is there local websites etc that you could link us to take a look?

At $1,000, personally, I wouldn't be spending ~$150 on a case, $100 on a 500GB SSD and ~$100 on a PSU (albeit a quality PSU).

Just making some slight adjustments to those components (without sacrificing quality) saves you ~$150.

Frees up some budget for something like a 5700XT over a 1660S.

Also, could dump the cpu cooler and get the 3600x. Faster out of the box and comes with an ok stock cooler.

Haven't used that case. Here is the one I'm using. Keep in mind you would need to factor in for extra fans. I have 3 led fans in front, 2 on top, and 1 as exhaust. Colors are white and red if anyone is interested.

This is my recommend. Stock cooler is enough as long as you dont overclock it (well the cpu is not unlocked for oc either). 450w psu is fine, beside, it's corsair, I trust it if I'm not mistake, this build will make 60Fps (or higher) on 1080p with High Setting (not ultra). And you get more storage too

For a 1660ti, how about something like this?

Regarding the i5, 6 core is ok, I prefer the ryzen with hyperthreading. Games are already starting to be more multithreaded, which is why a lot of the older i5 systems probably begin to struggle. If things keep going this direction, you'll probably appreciate the hyperthreading down the road.

The aio is optional, but if you’re going to overclock, I recommend it.
