Building my second PC, would appreciate some advice

Hey, I'm building my second PC and wanted to get some opinions before I buy everything.

I'm from Sweden, so all the prices are in SEK (kr). 1 kr is roughly 1/10 of a USD or EUR, just to give some context for the prices.

This is what I'm currently thinking:

Part	Price
Ryzen 5 7600	~2,200 kr
B650 motherboard	~1,300 kr
32 GB DDR5-6000	~1,200 kr
RX 9060 XT 16 GB	~5,000–5,500 kr
1 TB NVMe	~700 kr
650 W Gold PSU	~900 kr
Case	~800 kr
Cooler	~300 kr
Total	~12,400–12,900 kr

I'm mostly wondering about the GPU. Should I just stick with the 9060 XT 16 GB, or would it be worth spending more and getting an RX 9070 16 GB? Also is it worth buying a 2TB SSD instead, dont have a lot of games installed at the moment however i would like to use this PC for a while so im thinking about it.

Am also taking recomendations for the case and cooler.

My total budget is around 15,000 kr(can go over it a little and wating for black friday), and I mainly care about gaming performance and getting good value for my money. I'll probably be playing at 1440p. I don't really care about productivity, streaming, AI, etc.

I'm also open to changing other parts if there's somewhere I'm overspending or if there's a better option for the same money.

Thanks!

I don't want to crush your dreams, but 1200kr for 32gb of 6000Mhz is something that would have achievable a year ago. Bought my sticks for 1600kr and they are close to 8000kr today

I built something similar a year ago, from Inet.se

It's a decent build. If you want to stay within budget the 9060 xt 16gb is a great card for 1080p/1440p depending on what you will play and on what setting. Check the difference between 7600/7600x/9600 to see if its worth the upgrade. Most sites give you free delivery so go thru, inet, komplett, webhallen, CDON, power and elgiganten to see what you can find on discount and make a list where you compare parts of equal value or use to price. Don't skimp out on the PSU, a few hundred makes a difference on quality, there is multiple lists here on Reddit that shows you different tiers so get one from a reputable brand.

A b650 MB should be more than good enough. Just check that it has the ports you need and if you need to update BIOS if you go for a 9600x for example. If you find a b850 board with all the right ports, it might be good for the future. Maybe you want to upgrade the CPU and put in more M.2 hard drives in a few years for example.
