Add whatever capacity HDD you want/need. Can drop to a 1TB SSD instead of 2TB if you want, but 1TB(and lower capacity) SSD prices have risen a bit recently, whereas 2TB have stayed the same price weirdly.

Couple of other good 1440p144Hz monitor options in the $300ish price range, but the GN27D is the best value currently. I can link some other options if wanted though. Definitely buy a 1440p144Hz monitor for this system, unless you go ultrawide(3440x1440) or 4k.

You can easily save $50 on mobo by swapping the X570 Prime PRO for an X570 TUF. You'll get Wi-Fi on the TUF(assuming you buy the Wi-Fi variant of course) but lose some other features, like I think an addressable RGB header and maybe some rear I/O, but I'd have to double check. VRM set-up on the TUF is the same as the Prime PRO though.
Could even save a little more by grabbing an MSI B450 Tomahawk MAX, which is still perfectly sufficient for a 3700x. Just went with X570 Prime PRO because of the budget really.
