Criticism is always welcome.

Very clean, well done. I'm personally not a fan of green lighting but this look pretty damn good.

 

Can't say I'm a fan of the VS Series PSU in there. I'm a big fan of Corsair PSU's, but the VS series are very low quality and not meant for a gaming rig. I also would have opted for a Ryzen 2600 which just hit $150 recently. Not sure how tight the budget was, but the 2600 is a pretty decent upgrade over the 1600. Everything else looks solid.

If I were you I would've ditched the RGB RAM and gotten a better PSU(The PSU Tier List recommends Tier B and above for gaming builds, but your PSU falls under Tier C), but considering this thing pulls 250W according to PCPartpicker and the PSU is 550W, it should be fine since the PSU shouldn't be anywhere near being stressed to it's limits

For $600 this is a pretty good PC, good choice on the 1600 with 2x8gb ddr4-3000 and rx570

I would try returning the PSU for a cx550 from corsair instead. 

 

Nothing super wrong with the VS series other than its not great in terms of components. 

 

Though if you cant, its not the end of the world. Just expect it to get a little boisy if you draw a medium to high load from it

Nice build, the green intake fans look especially appealing.

Black and green? A rig after my own heart.
