That GPU is nice, but I would buy a less expensive model. The Sapphire Pulse is $60 cheaper, and the Power Color Fighter is another $20 cheaper than that. That's enough to get a decent 1tb NVME. Inland is Microcenter's house brand. I have one in my AMD rig, and it's been great.

Nice build, and i agree with the above.

One thing i would look at is the cooler. If it's an older part, it might be nearing it's useful lifespan.
Consider replacing it with a Phantom Spirit EVO, or any nice tower cooler. Or an Arctic Freezer II if you prefer AIO.

ADATA do not have a great reputation with SSDs. For a cheap but reliable drive, try a Crucial P3 Plus or Tgroup MP44: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/2x...-40-x4-nvme-solid-state-drive-tm8fpk001t0c101
