Budget (including currency): about 1k euro after GPU and CPU.

Country: Denmark

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Wide range of gaming, not too much AAA. Definitely Total War Warhammer.

Other details

I have never built a pc before, and am ready to make the jump from laptop gaming. I want to have a mid-range pc with decent energy efficiency.

 

This is my initial list, please help me refine and adjust the list. Especially if I'm spending money on something needless.

Why change to a single SSD? With two I can split up the one for the system and the one for games, so the system isn't affected by my reckless installing and uninstalling of games. Which would probably cause it to degen faster.
