So I need some parts to upgrade a old set up and build a new one so this is what I need

1x graphics card

1x cpu

1x mobo

1x psu

1x 16gb ddr4

2x headset

1x extended mouse pad

1x hard drive

1x case

 

This is what I've come up with and yes I do need the two headsets and already have ssd's to use and just for a some info I have a 144hz 1080p monitor and want to take advantage of it in AAA games at med or high and max it out I. Lighter titles like tf2, apex Legends, doom, and wolfenstien  

 

GPU: rtx 2060 super $399.99 (rumor at TOP announcement should be 7/2)

CPU: ryzen 5 3600 $199.99(7/7 release)

MOBO: asrock b450m pro4 $69.99

PSU: evga 500 w1, 80+ 500w $39.99

RAM:  corsair vengeance lpx 16gb 2x8 3000mhz $65.99

HEADSET: 2x corsair hs60 $39.99

HDD: 1tb western digital 7200rpm hdd $43.69

CASE: Thermaltake versa h22

MOUSE PAD: corsair mm300 extended $14.99

 

Total: $954.61

 

Unless it is a huge price gap I would like to stay on Amazon and kinda have a firm budget of $960 shipping included but not tax would appreciate feedback :)

Rly I thought 80+ was the seal of "will at least function"

80+ only refers to the efficiency, not a guide as to the actual quality of the PSU. Its been pretty much supplanted by 80+ Bronze/Gold anyway in recent years for efficiency.

And every manufacturer (Corsair/EVGA/CM/Seasonic etc.) all make good and terrible PSUs across their entire range, so choose wisely.

 

Check here for a rough guide and try picking out something from Tier B or better.
