My 4060 plays everything and comes with better tech than red team. I have gone through about 7 Gigabyte mobos and they suck. I would advise a different brand. If you don't have NVMe storage, its a must! Use your traditional SSD has backup storage.
I've had Gigabyte motherboards since my first build in 2006, I will always use Gigabyte, only had one fail on me (it was a Z79 ) it was 6 years old when it was repurposed from my gaming PC and then went into 24/7 use as a home server, then it died after 2 years, 8 years of heavy use is alright in my book. My new server has a gigabyte board too and that's been on 24/7 for about 6 months now, no issues to date.
That's impressive. Of all my gigabyte mobo builds the board was the first thing to fail every time.
I'd use the sata SSD for OS and the NVMe for games/storage.
It depends on the actual drives and usage but the advantage of NVMe is largely in sequential speeds - the difference in random access speeds is not usually as dramatic.
The speed increase over Regular SSD and NVME is justified, but not requited just yet, I will use the SSDs I have until I fancy grabbing a 2tb NVME at a later date.
I do plan on using the 1tb 2.5" ssd in my server as cache drive.
comes with "better tech" for significantly more than a 6750xt and has worse performance than the 6750xt
