Help improving my build part 2

Weather_Report

Now that new parts have released I'm looking to update my planned build with parts that recently dropped. Below is the planned build and what I want to build.

 

TLDR, I want to see if this build can be improved and/or made cheaper without sacrificing performance. The point of this build to play new/up and coming games cold war and cyberpunk for example.

If OP lives near a Micro Center, this is $160 - $20 off, another $20 with the purchase of a compatible motherboard.

I'm in favour of a huge 32" monitor, but in case OP wants to save or has limited desk space, Monoprice has a 27" monitor with the same specs for $190.
