I am looking forward to building my first PC and wanted to get advice on if there are any specific month/events (Eg: Black Friday) with discounts on PC parts that I should wait for.

I go with second-hand hardware. Depending on your needs might be good savings.

I don't really mind second hand stuff at least for GPUs and other expensive stuff but the only thing I am worried about is verifying if it works, i.e to avoid being scammed.

Especially with the 40 series and AM5 finishing its rollout.

Am4 chips, DDR4 and 30 series GPUs have been really common on clasifieds.
