Do you own an SSD? If not, consider getting one. Using a spinning hard drive would have failed long ago. The 5600x is outdated and doesn’t justify its price. It’s not worth $400.

B550 and mini-ITX models. Checking for strong reviews and desired features like built-in Wi-Fi.

They weren't reliable until about five years prior.

Actual results contradict what I've heard. My experience agrees with that.

Additionally, the GPU lacks 8GB of VRAM; it only provides 6GB.

Actually, back in 2001, consumer SSDs weren't advanced enough to perform well until about a decade prior.

Yes, you can use GeForce RTX 3060 Ti with compatible CPUs. Look for models with at least 8 cores and a high base clock to ensure smooth performance.

I switched from a spinning disk to an SSD over ten years ago, and the change was huge—definitely worth it. Back then, they weren’t big, but they worked perfectly. The 3060 Ti offers 8GB of VRAM, which is solid. For the CPU, the 5600X is a solid pick, but aim for the MSRP price. Around $300 or less is ideal; anything over $400 is probably a scam.

You can pick your original choice yet opt for a more affordable option like a Ryzen 3600. With a 3060 Ti you won't miss anything. I found a Ryzen 5 3600 for $200 at my local Best Buy—they had four in stock. After returning a keyboard I bought there two days later, all three items were still available. This happened in December when the shortage was still significant. If you have a microcenter or a nearby Best Buy, it’s worth visiting to secure CPUs and other parts at their original price. Avoid buying cases from a Best Buy unless necessary; I liked the case but had concerns about getting the right one during the trip. Considering a case from Newegg is a smart move.
