I’m looking to build my first ever pc, but I want it to be powerful but reasonably priced. I was planning on getting a Gigabyte RTX 2070, but not sure what CPU.  My budget for CPU is between $200 - $300 CDN or $150 - $230 USD. Also if you can recommend a reasonably priced Motherboard to go along with, that would be great.

Yeah an R5 3600 with any B450 board that fits the budget.
