Cost saving tips

Hey, I'm looking to build something around 1000/1200€ I already scrapped OC and switched to an i5, also scrapped the ssd. I realize the PSU might be a bit overkill all to save a few hundred bucks. The goal is "affordable" 1080p gaming. So, any suggestions on where I can save money on this build?

Get a WD Blue instead of WD Black. Use the money you save to buy a SSD.

CPU: Intel i7 6700k  | Motherboard: Gigabyte Z170x Gaming 5 | RAM: 2x16GB 3000MHz Corsair Vengeance LPX | GPU: Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1080ti | PSU: Corsair RM750x (2018) | Case: BeQuiet SilentBase 800 | Cooler: Arctic Freezer 34 eSports | SSD: Samsung 970 Evo 500GB + Samsung 840 500GB + Crucial MX500 2TB | Monitor: Acer Predator XB271HU + Samsung BX2450
