This is my build for an all rounder pc, i want to be able to primarily animate, program, photoshop etc on it but also the occasional gaming. Any recommendations/modifications i should make?

trying to keep the price low as possible

Keep in mind that a cooler isn't necessary for Ryzen (the stock cooler will perform as well as the hyper 212) and that you can buy a mx500 instead of a 860 evo.

If you're trying to save get another ssd Likr MX500 Like what @NunoLava1998 mentioned. Get a good 550E PSU just get the 2060 rather than 1660Ti I know it will bring more cost but you can swap mobo for Pro 4, get the cheapest kit of ram with 3000mhz speed.

A lot better! Go for it!

Can you wait for Zen 2? You'll get a much better CPU for around the same price. It's on store shelves in just over a week (july 7th, 7/7)

Well that was better than what I expected originally. I actually forgot if the 860 is better than MX500 or the other way around it's only 1$ anyway.
