As previously mentioned swap the sata ssd with a NVMe one, but I also recommend foregoing the thermal paste as the Noctua cooler does already come with a tube.

Isn't it too pricey for the performance over the stock cooler? I'd get the NH15/Dark Rock Pro 4/Evo 212 any day before that one for that price

It's actually the cheapest I can get locally!

For $70 I would stick to the stock cooler until I can get the NH-D15 or Dark Rock Pro 4 for $90, which is a beast, there are few sales from time to time too

The stock cooler is the "wraith stealth", and it's rated for 65W and I'll be doing a lot of editing and gaming so it's probably inadequate, and I was able to find a dark rock pro 4 for a similar price, so I've updated the list for that.
