Last generation CPU makes no sense. Last generation GPU makes no sense. 32GB RAM is totally unnecessary. No mention of PSU model, so it could be amazing, or it could be terrible. No mention of storage, case, or CPU cooler.

Can't recommend anything without a budget.

We need your budget and currency to work with. We also need to know what exactly you need within budget? If a monitor is not needed, what monitor are you using. What exactly is the system being used for? What 1TB SSD have you got?
