Why not the entire budget if you still need peripherals anyway? We might be able to snag actual good monitor too if you havent have one already.

I'm not currently looking for a monitor, nor am i focused on peripherals, just looking to upgrade my $10 mouse and keyboard. im just making sure my parts are good

Looks good overall.  I'm using the exact same motherboard main gaming PC (see my "Family Gaming PC" build in signature).

 

If you can increase/reallocate your budget, I'd recommend spending extra on a more powerful GPU...

- $329 for a Radeon 6700 XT (I have both GPUs - a 6600 and a 6700 XT, and in my experience, it's a huge upgrade over the 6600*, and well matched to a Ryzen 5600/5700).

- If you can't stretch to that, a 6650 XT would still be a solid improvement over the 6600 for about half the difference.

Switch out the cpu for either a Ryzen 5 5600 or a Ryzen 7 5700X.

Switching around parts even further can net us 6800XT, better board, and similar quality PSU.
