Hi, I was planning on building a pc, are these parts good? I don't want to mess anything up because of the large budget.

I plan on using it for gaming and workloads like recording and video editing.
Is the CPU cooler any good for the price? There were cheaper options and idk if I am spending too much on it. And I know it sounds stupid, but is there any way the price can be shaved down just a little bit more without sacrificing too much performance?
Edit: Swapped out the Samsung 970 Evo with an HP EX920, good? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mLnKXb
