Yea that's what I was planning to do. Just sucks people have to wait another month or so for the card. 

And also, the RX 5700 non-XT has much lower temps with the blower design than the XT does. It's also $50 cheaper than the 2060 Super while pretty much matching it in performance. So if you can't wait, 5700 is also a much better buy than the 2060 Super.

Well there's definitely better value cases, but if you want airflow for lower temperatures then that's very good at that sort of thing.

 

What I would do is change the ssd to a different one, because I believe the 660p has a fairly short lifespan in comparison to most of the others. And also, we can definitely save money on the case:

Changed SSD to a more reliable MX500, and changed the case to a corsair 400c, which has more than good enough airflow for good temperatures.

 

SSD sounds like a good move. Your case suggestion seems pretty decent, I will have to mull over what I am going to use for a case now. 

Well, thanks for your help, in regards to the GPU and my build. It would be really nice to put my build together, it would suck to wait 1 month or so, for a better cooling system on the XT.
