Just found this one.. Might be one of the better options.
Quite similar to the one you provided where you can easily build what you want.
Makes me confused though. For example, many different rtx 3060 cards from different manufacturers, with a large difference in price. Does this meen that some 3060 cards are less good?
Same goes for power supply, Ram and storage. For a guy like me who have just got my head wrapped around the different models of cards it is hard to figure out what's what. Expensive allways better?

Re: Looking to get a new stationary PC.
Built this for 1640$ or 10.100 Danish kroner.
Which to me seems very good, but I'm absolutely no expert.
AMD Ryzen 5 3600
AMD stock cooler
Asus Prime A520M-K
Gainward- Geeforce RTX 3060TI Ghost OC
Kingston Hyperx Fury 2x 8GB 3200Mhz RAM
Shark Gaming Blood pump 700w Bronze plus (88%) electricity supply
Shark 1TB NVME M.2 SSD
Realtek ALC887 8 channel HD Codec sound card

Re: Looking to get a new stationary PC.
Change the motherboard to a B450 or a B550 (both preferably from MSI) The "A" series is low end for motherboards and doesn't have a lot of features, including overclocking. For longevity I'd definitely say get something better.
And I'm worried about that PSU, never seen it and it looks pretty cheap. Best recommendation here is Seasonic. And trust me, you'll want a good PSU.
To answer your previous comment: No, expensive not ALWAYS better, but generally, yes. The GPUs as an example, some brands are stupidly overpriced but have almost identical performance to the even cheapest versions of the cards, but they come with some bells and whistles, like RGB for example. Performance wise the brand doesn't matter too much, it's mostly other stuff you want to look at, like warranty or customer support.
Theres more, but I'm strapped on time so I'll let Void and Meizner answer it further

Changed the motherboard to a B-550 and upgraded the PSU to a Nzxt 90+ Gold E850, which was recommended on some other forums and computer review pages.Plan B wrote: โSat Feb 27, 2021 11:41 am Change the motherboard to a B450 or a B550 (both preferably from MSI) The "A" series is low end for motherboards and doesn't have a lot of features, including overclocking.
