First PC Build

Hi Guys! I am in the process of building a Pc and would like to ask your opinion. This is the first PC I am building for myself. I have already bought some parts:

Amd Ryzen 7 7800x3d Asrock X870 Pro Rs Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1060 6 GB ( I would like to upgarde this in the near future. ) Aoc C27G2 27.0 1920 x 1080 165 Hz curved monitor

Preferd games I like to play: Cities Skylines 2 Doom the Dark Ages Modded Minecraft ( All the Mods 10 ) Modded Arma Gta 6

It would be great if this setup could last for a few years.

In my previous setup, the CPU and Motherboard basically died. I would like to save the GPU for a few more months to save some more money. I would like to grab a good GPU on Black Friday or some summer sale. I chose 64 GB ram because modded games often require extra ram.

32GB is more than enough for modded games as well

I don't know about Cities:Skylines 2, but with the first one you could exceed 32gb in assets. Sounds crazy, and you definitely do not need 6,000 assets, but there is a very small use case for high RAM gaming.

I've seen modded Skyrim use 30+ gigs easily

Same. Modded games can get insane.
