Hi, I'm going to attempt to build my first PC and I want to make sure that when I mess it up I can't blame the hardware. I'm very new to PC parts and stuff so there's bound to be a few errors. Here are the parts:

 

Case: NZXT H500

CPU: Intel Core i7 9700k

Cooler: Corsair H115i PRO RGB water cooling

GPU: MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING X 6 GB  GDDR4 Memory PCI Express 3.0 

Power Supply: Corsair CP-9020131-UK TXM Series 750W TX750M ATX/EPS Semi Modular 80 PLUS Gold

Storage: Samsung SSD 860 QVO 1TB

Memory: Corsair CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 3200MHz C16 XMP 2.0

Motherboard:  MSI  MPG Z390 GAMING PRO CARBON (Socket 1151/Z390/DDR4/S-ATA 600/ATX)

Optical Drive: External CD DVD Drive, Vlio USB 3. portable slim CD DVD +/-RW Drive player burner, writer, reader

 

Once again, sorry if there are any errors. If you need more info please ask me. Please tell me if I should cut back, price wise, on some parts, what to replace them with and then what I could use that money with to upgrade/change. I'm trying to keep around the same price as it is, but I don't mind pushing it a bit. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks.

Depending on your budget, try and get a better GPU. I feel like the 1060 6GB will bottleneck your CPU. Try for a 1080 or 2070 super

You can get a much better system for either the same price or cheaper. Where are you from and what's your budget? Do you have a display you intend to use?

Ive rebuilt the system for a similar price (UK). The only think they you might want to add is a wireless card.

Yes, you are sacrificing cores. But, you are gaining 4 more threads (Due to SMT on Ryzen CPUs and not on 9700k) and a very improved GPU
