So I'm going to build my first pc.

and I picked these parts:

 

motherboard: ASUS AM4 TUF Gaming X570-Plus

memory: Samsung 970 EVO Plus 250GB

secondary memory: Seagate BarraCuda 2TB

ram: G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 16GB

case: NZXT H700

cpu: AMD Ryzen 5 3600

gpu: gtx 1050 (I already have this lying at home im going to upgrade to a rtx 2060 later)

power supply: Corsair RM650x

 

I think it's all correct but, I'm pretty nervous so I hope some experienced builders can help me.

thanks in advance.

What are you going to do with this computer? Is it just gaming?

You don't need more than 450-500W. You can get the MSI B450 Tomahawk Max and an Arctic Freezer eSports 34.

Everything is solid, good mobo if you want to upgrade the CPU to something beefier... but cheapening it out for a good B450 is also a way to go.

 

You will want to upgrade that GTX 1050 to something better for sure, and I wouldn't bother with the vanilla RTX 2060 for that, the RX 5700 is around this price point but offers more gains as is... ideally the RX 5700XT for it to be a good build for years to come.

 

Now I'd reconsider the boot, you don't need a Evo+ you could potentially find more SSD storage going with something cheaper like Sabrent Rocket.
