3060 Ti build, This is my first build and wanted to know if there were any suggestions on changes on the build before I purchase it soon. I had the most trouble with the storage and power supply and was also wondering if I get an M2 NVME, could I or should I also add a hdd or sata drives for more space. Thanks in advance.

Pcpartpicker is a bit easier to digest so I'd recommend to using that instead

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XvrjW4

Slight modifications 

I put an aftermarket cooler because the 12400f doesn't run that hot, so the stock cooler would probably be fine, but it would have more noise

Cheaper ssd since Samsungs tend to be a bit pricey

Really if you don't have the 3060ti already I wouldn't recommend to get it since it's easily outclassed by a 6700xt for the same price as long as you don't raytracing.

Nothing wrong with the lian li case, I just Included a cheaper one to conform a bit better with your budget
