I'm from India, planning to build my first gaming PC.

After a lot of research i get to these items:-

1. AMD Ryzen 5 3600X/ AMD Ryzen 7 3700X(confused)

2. GeForce RTX 2060 super(8gb)

3. G-Skill trident (8gbx4, 3200 mhz)

4. MSI MPG X570 Gaming Edge WiFi Motherboard

5. Corsair TX-M 650 W (80+ gold)

6. NZXT 700i mid tower

Should i use stock cooler or buy a new one (please tell) and also looking for a monitor (1080p min, 144hz)

Your research totally failed you since MSI did badly with their X570 boards below the Unify. Carbon, Edge and stuff are all unable to compete with Asus or Gigabyte offerings. The TUF Wifi should be your best bet.

 

Dont need more thna 16GB RAM for a gaming PC imo, spend the extra money on the graphics card or maybe 3600MHz CL16/17 RAM.

- no point with ryzen 5 3600x in gaming, ryzen 5 3600 is basically the same performance. ryzen 7 3700x provides some performance boost, but 3600 is more than enough

- no need for 32GB RAM, 16 is more than enough

- no need for X570, B450 does the job just fine and is much much cheaper

- stock cooler may be fine, but knowing india's hot weather i think a cheap hyper 212 cooler is better

 

I assume your budget is ₹150,000
