I'm going to buy a Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro wifi Mobo and I'm going to put an AMD RYZEN 7 2700x CPU. My graphics card is a Gigabyte RTX 2070 super OC GPU.  My question is am I going to have any problems with this system? Are these parts compatible? I'm spending $325 on this today and want to know before I buy. Also if anyone has any better suggestions let me know. I have everything else needed for this system just looking for a new Mobo and CPU. Thanks in advance for the advise.

If you look at the motherboard manufacturer's website the motherboard has a CPU Support page listing all the compatible CPU's and what BIOS version is needed to run them.

There are no incompatibilities, the B450 platform was released with Ryzen 2000 and will work right out of the box with a 2700x. The RTX 2070 Super will work with any modern motherboard with PCI-E.

Thx. Do you think it will be a good machine that can handle all the new AAA games?

It's a decent rig, should be able to handle AAA titles at 1080p 144hz or more with ease. 1440p less so, but still nicely.
