@AVSHedgehog Ryzen LOVES fast ram the faster the better, I would switch to a 3200mhz kit of ram or at minimum a 3000mhz kit you can get Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB 3200mhz for a few dollars cheaper than the 2666mhz ram you have just because it doesn't have RGB, personally I'd rather have better performance than RGB. The PSU in the list should be fine although I personally would go for something a little better. I would also wait for the 2070 Supers to be available it's pointless getting an original 2070 at this time.

That looks fine to me, Psu might be a lil weak tho

Wattage-wise it's probably overkill, and it has decent quality. ...but depending on your location, you should be able to get better alternatives for around the same price.

EDIT: RGB memory is not a good priority. For Ryzen, go Samsung B-die or go home (3200MHz CL14 is always B-die, and not much more expensive than "normal" RAM).

Main rig: i7 8086K // EVGA Z370 Micro // 16GB Gskill TridentZ 3200Mhz CL14 // Sapphire Pulse RX 7800XT// a variety of noctua cooling // Corsair RM750x v2 //  Fractal Meshify C

Secondary rig: R5 3600 // MSI B450i Gaming Plus // 16GB Gskill FlareX 3200CL14 // MSI GTX 1080ti Gaming X // Cooler Master V650 // Fractal Meshify C

Audio setup: Audient iD4 // Adam A7X // Sennheiser HD 650 // Sennheiser HD 25-II // Audio Technica M50x // Sennheiser Momentum 4

Some of those parts have now been superseded with better/faster/cheaper ones. Given that the 2070 Super is out along with price reductions why would anyone opt for the old version?  If you want a 2070... get the 2060 super and save some money instead which would allow you to get a better CPU/MB. The R5 3600 is a much better CPU and will still work on that MB.  Or go for the RX5700 which is the same price as the 2060 super, but beats it in all but a handful of games so far (according to all the reviews/benchmarks I've seen).

NO RGB aside from MB and AIO pump. Triple 27" Monitor setup (1x 144hz, 2x 75hz, all freesync/freesync 2)

My only issue with that advice.. is that 450 series boards and 2xxx series Ryzens can be very... VERY picky when it comes to getting ram running at 3200Mhz...  I know from personal experience as my rather expensive Corsair Vengeance 3200Mhz won't run higher than 3066 on the Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro. Run it at 3133Mhz and it will occasionally randomly fail to boot and reset all BIOS settings when it falls back on the other backup bios... which can also mean it downgrades you BIOS version.... I updated mine a few times and am now on F40... but last time it fell over it reverted back to F32.

 

If you try to run it at 3200mhz... it won't even boot after you save the BIOS settings, it simply does the POST falls over and resets to the backup BIOS.

 

I've tried more than one kit, tried all of the slots, tried single and dual channel.

 

 

It's a more common problem that most people realise.

80% of your parts are extreme expensive, dunno whats wrong with that, also you can save like 1000 dollar if u choose other brands... i call the whole setup TERRIBLE and would never ever in my life spend 2,5k for such a bad system and overpriced components. you should completely start again.
