Problem with your spec is fairly common. In an attempt to buy the best GPU and CPU, everything else has been sacrificed.

So the case is relatively cheap. The motherboard is a low end Prime. The RAM is slow. The main storage is a HDD not fast M2 SSD. The power supply is an office type CV 550.

It will work but it’s not optimal. Do you really need a 3060? Do you really need a i5-11600KF?

As @DarTon has said there's a number of areas I'd agree need improving here. We have your budget but what monitor will be paired with the system? Either make and model or resoltuion and refresh rate would be ideal. Once we have that info, we'd be happy to give it an optimise for you

Hmmm. No thanks. This PC is just for flexing and not playing resource intensive games like COD with ray-tracing or something. I'll be pairing it with a monitor that has 240hz and 1080p res. So basically I've sacrificed higher quality to get higher FPS.
