The 3050 prices will probably not go down anytime soon. Decent build otherwise.

First and foremost, don't get that PSU. It's known to blow up and take components with it. It's a ticking time bomb.

 

Second, I'd go for a different motherboard and CPU platform. The i5 12400(F) is cheaper and will perform marginally better. 

 

Third, you can get faster RAM for cheaper. A kit of 3600MHz CL18 will be about $5 cheaper and be slightly faster.

 

Finally, you didn't include any storage. I'm gonna assume you already have some from a previous build that you're planning on salvaging, but in case you don't have an SSD, get something like a 970 Evo Plus 1TB or Crucial P5 1TB. 1TB drives are roughly the sweet spot for price to capacity, and both of those drives are very good for the price.

Would swap out the Gigabyte PSU. They have a known issue called blowing up . Some alternatives for you:

MSI MPG A-GF

EVGA SuperNOVA GA

Super Flower Leadex III Gold
