Thinking of a new build (sh.itjust.works)

Hello! I have chosen some parts for a PC based around a monitor I currently have. I have a 4k monitor and the games I'd like to play on it and the current PC I have isn't cutting it anymore unfortunately.

These are the parts I've chosen, I already have 24GB of RAM, just wondering if there's anything cheaper I can get to lower the price and get similar performance. I don't have much experience in building PCs but I've done a bit of research

Currently would like to play Helldivers 2 and Baldur's Gate 3 on the 4k monitor with no issue.

AM4 is an EoL socket. If OP ever plans to* upgrade the processor, an AM5 CPU + motherboard is a better choice.

* Not "just in case," but will actually do it at some point before buying a whole new computer.

Good point.
