Help with first PC Build?

[Cy7]

Looking for recommendations as to what components are compatible with and have the same quality standard as the RTX 3060 Ti and Ryzen 9 5950x. I was hoping to fit it all in the NZXT H510 ATX Mid Tower Case, and if you have any recommendations to a better or more compatible case, I am all ears. I have a price range of $2,000 to $2,300 USD, and I am wanting to build a gaming PC that can play games at exceptional FPS and keep up with the evolving graphics. Also, I am thinking of getting a dual monitor setup to go with it, any recommendations to monitors that go with this setup would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

P.S. I am ignorant when it comes to PC's and your articles helped a lot when deciding what I wanted to build my PC around. Thanks!

Do you want to play across two displays or a primary one for gaming and one secondary display?

One for gaming and one for secondary display.

Looks decent overall, just a few tweaks -

1. Switch CPU to a Ryzen 7 7700X
2. Switch CPU cooler to a Thermalright Peerless Assassin or Deepcool AK620
3. Switch out from the multiple storage drives to a single NVMe (1/2TB depending on how much space you think you’ll need
4. Upgrade GPU to the best you can find using the money saved above.
