I am evaluating the listed custom build (assembled on Newegg) and wondering about a replacement PSU from SeaSonic that would fit under this configuration without exceeding $120. Would you like to see if a SeaSonic PSU available on Newegg matches the power requirements of these components?

This PSU is also a solid choice. The Be Quiet model scores higher than the Montech and is noticeably quieter.

This pc is designed primarily for graphics performance.
For integrated graphics, 650W is adequate.
The Seasonic Core GX650 with a 7-year warranty is available for $90:
https://www.newegg.com/seasonic-usa...6817151276&cm_sp=product-_-from-price-options
If you intend to upgrade to a discrete GPU later, consider 750W or 850W ($108/$129).
I may also search for a more efficient CPU cooler.
The model you chose is limited in power and could overheat, especially with a 12900K.
Make sure to update your motherboard BIOS to the latest version to prevent voltage problems.

You're welcome about the recommendation. The case includes 3 cooling fans; would you consider those along with the CPU cooler sufficient? If not, what CPU cooler under $50 would you suggest?

This appears to be a highly recommended air cooler currently offering great value.

Two 120mm front intakes and one 120mm rear exhaust should suffice. Running applications that consume more than half of the 16 available threads in the 12600K requires a high-quality cooler. The thermalright peerless assassin is highly recommended for $45: https://www.newegg.com/p/13C-000Y-000J2
