Over the last month or so, storage components like CMR-based high capacity hard disks, SSDs (both internal and external), have taken a nose dive in price making them generally great buys at the moment. However, in case you are looking for CPUs and GPUs, it looks like going AMD could be a great option now. Cheaper, more affordable AM5 boards are finally beginning to arrive, and on the graphics side, AMD is also dropping prices of the RX 7900 series cards, and some are selling under MSRP too (buying links below).The price drops make these Radeon cards much better options to consider if you are after 1440p and 4K gaming.
RX 7900 XTX 24GB: Slightly better than RTX 4080 in raster or general game rendering (which is also far more common in games), and equal to RTX 3090 or 4070 Ti in ray tracing.
