Please tell me off for anything stupid, and point me in the right direction. If I can save some money on anything overkill and upgrade in more efficient places I would love that. I was also seeing that the 9070 Ti is much better but I dont know if I can fit that in my price range.
AMD Ryzen 7 9700X 3.8 GHz 8-Core Processor
Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE ARGB 66.17 CFM CPU Cooler
Gigabyte B850 EAGLE WIFI6E ATX AM5 Motherboard
G.Skill Ripjaws M5 RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL36 Memory
(already bought this, because I panicked when I saw this was only $270 when everywhere else RAM cost $500 aud, apparently is slightly worse because its 36 not 30 but idk)
Samsung 990 EVO Plus 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 5.0 X2 NVME Solid State Drive (why are ssd's so expensive)
Gigabyte GAMING OC Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB Video Card
Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini V2 Flow ATX Mid Tower Case (idk how to pick a case)
MSI MAG A750GL PCIE5 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

It is ~$100 AUD over your budget but I would go with this for a significantly more performat system:

No idea why white is cheaper when it's usually more expensive.

Would the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X suffice? Im mostly a singleplayer gamer, with some music production also.

Pick a cheaper ssd, you don’t need the plus version, and a cheaper case and you can upgrade the gpu
