I'm building my first PC and I want to make sure I have all the parts

Hello as I said in my title this is my first time building and I'm pretty nervous. I was originally going to buy second hand but I can't find anything I feel is worth the money. Anyway heres a list of the parts I have in my cart on Newegg (excluding the tower) are these worth the price the total so far is about 1300 and I really don't want to go over that.
For context I plan on animating, playing basic games (no shooters) and recording. If these anywhere that would be better to buy cheaper parts let me know. I'm still in school and I need the computer for my Senior capstone.

Asus Prime mobos and Thermaltake Smart PSUs are poor quality. You should switch these out. Also RAM is pretty important. And a case.

You were missing the RAM kit and the case.
Although the 9060 XT 16GB is amazing value for gaming, productivity tasks like animating tend to like Nvidia GPUs more so swapped it for the 5060. If your workload isn't too GPU-demanding, the 5060 will be more than along with your basic gaming needs.

Thank you so so much I kept getting confused and most of these parts the website "picked out for me" I will use this list instead you just made my life a million times easier lol I appreciate it.

I see the GPU on there twice but no ram? Copy paste issue? also I'm gonna be honest, I used to recommend newegg ten years ago but lately I've had rough experiences with the customer service and so have a lot of other people. Do you have a micro center near you? If not, I hate Amazon but at least their return options work. I spent months with newegg pretending I mailed them an empty return box before they gave me my money

I don’t see any RAM on this build. You’ll definitely need that.
