Budget: ₱85,000.00 ($1,700.00)

Ok, so my previous pc stopped posting 7 days into the Community Quarantine and the monitor started bleeding a week after. Pissed me off to no end, have been canvassing for a new build since late March, just would like to ask opinions/suggestions on the build i’m planning to acquire. This would be the first build that i ever had that would be using an AMD cpu, Have always used an i5 since i started pc gaming a decade ago, but have seen reviews about the r5 3600 being the best mid tier cpu.

NOTES
Have contacted various parts shops and have informed me of a shortage of RTX GPU’s except the 2070 super and up models.
Will it be alright if i use a Free Sync Monitor? 1440p Free sync monitors are a bit cheaper than the g-sync ones.
Been also looking parts at amazon & newegg but worried about receiving a dead unit, and the shipping costs and import dues makes it more expensive.
Would like to try 1440p gaming if the budget permits, my previous monitor was an Asus VC239, and the previous build almost maxed out every game i threw at it.
