It's a good time to buy a 4k, prices have really come down generally, they're actually getting pleasantly affordable at long last.

The build looks really good.

You want to split the OS and games drives, have two individual, maybe at another 1TB for OS (500 would be fine also) then if you have to reinstall windoes you don't lose your games.

Drop the paste as the cooler comes pre applied with high quality stuff.

Drop the Norton offer, Norton sucks and is a pain to uninstall. The windows defender is just as good as the premium options.

Otherwise I wouldn't change a thing.
