first time building a computer - need help :)

[xyuvi]

Hey, it's my first time being around here but I needed some help on my computer. I have put all the components of the computer in one area but I'm not sure if its good or not, I'm basically new to everything in general. I plan on using this computer for gaming, editing, and some photoshop. Basically a lot of stuff. 

 

All I need is some advice on what I should do.

I also do plan on switching the case (since I don't like it that much) but please give me your opinions and stuff like that and things I should switch.

More storage is a must. 500gb will fill up quickly. I'd also try to find a better GPU, which may require a beefier power supply. I picked up an RTX 2070 for about 40 dollars more than the GPU you have on that list, however I did get an excellent deal on it.

The system is fine. Do you plan to return the case and get a replacement before you assemble the system?

OP is located in Canada. RTX 2070 costs around $600 there.
