Had a budget of about $3000 so decided with these parts. I was gonna go for 2080ti but found the 2080 super to be better price wise. Might end up upgrading to new cards later this year anyways. 

I do a lot of editing, programming, youtube/browsing, and gaming so 32gb surprisingly wasn't cutting it for me (average about 24gb a day in usage). So decided with 64gb 3600 CL17.

Most power supplies were sold out so could only go with this one.

4.0 M.2 and case my dad gave me, hence the $0 price tag.

you don't need the 3950x for gaming and programming. the 3900x is at a good discount at the moment and it's a very good deal.

if you average out at 24gb of ram, it means 32gb are enough, you don't need 64. you can get 3600c16

psu is fine.
