unselect the mcafee service - bloatware
mouse you can get it for cheaper, same with Office

suggestions on customization:
-if you want bigger battery, go for 512+512GB 2280 SSD (select SSD in first storage). Otherwise 1TB+256 or 512GB 2280 SSD
-get 144Hz panel
-deselect gaming mouse

from what I know Adobe programs works better on Intel based machines, you sure you want Ryzen?
