I am going to build a new computer. Could someone look over and tell me if it's all good?

- I don't have a fixed budget but I guess I don't wanna pay more than I have to

- I play on 1080p but on 144Hz. I only play WoW mostly but I often play games like Witcher 3 where I wanna get as much fps as possible and definitely way more than 60

- If you're gonna go on PCP please make sure you choose the merchant Amazon UK cause that's where I will buy

I think you need a powersupply?

i read that a 2600 actually bottlenecks the 2060 super, should i upgrade the cpu? 

Bottlenecking isn't real. Both cpu and gpu contribute to your fps. Of course a 9900k would get more fps out of a 2060 super than a 2600, but that doesn't mean it's bottlenecking it. For a gaming pc, spending 3 times more on the gpu than on the cpu sounds reasonable.

okay i adapted the motherboard but i think you forgot that i only buy from amazon, the other items you chose are way more expensive so ill just stick to the gpu i got, i dont see any bad reviews so i think it will be ok

I'll recommend something like this instead...

More performance for the same price...

2600 + 5700xt.
