Can someone give me an opinion about this rig?

Is this system strictly for gaming? If so, a 3600 would be fine. You won't see a difference between the two.

 

B450 board will do fine for the 3700x, if that it the route you still went with

 

Your storage setup is horrible, sorry to say. Overpriced for both drives. You can easily get a 1TB NVMe drive + a 2TB barracuda for that price.

Overkill power supply. 650w would be more than enough.

 

Also in the future just be sure to post the link to your list instead of a screen shot

no price for graphics card? I assume you arent taking prices from PCPP?

 

May want to invest in an aftermarket cooler like the Arctic Freezer 34 or Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black, as the stock cooler is only acceptable and nothing more. Not as important as $20 LEDs on the memory stick as least imo

If you're on a budget you can get away with a B450 or X470 motherboard as your graphics card doesn't support PCIe 4.0. You could also step down to a R5 3600 if this is just for gaming as Slottr said. However, if future-proofing or content creation is a priority, you've got a good build.

I would consider an XPG sx8200 NVME drive, and you can get a 4tb drive for $60. newegg has em Refurbished: HGST Ultrastar 7K4000 HUS724040ALE641 4tb.   You will fill up 1tb very quickly.  I would just get a 144hz monitor too, it is not going to make a difference unless you are some sort of gaming god, and even then it is debatable.

The moniter is quite overpriced, for a lower cost you could get a 1080p 144hz or even 240hz if you truly need it. I would also consider a different cpu, mobo, and storage like stated above.

For Ryzen Zen2 I would recommend 3600mhz memory, pref with a CAS latency of 16.

 

That monitor is horribly overpriced too. 

 

What is your use case and budget?

Cam you give me more info about good B450 mother board? For the storage i chose the ww black, because it is fast and mostly for the 5 year warranty. Most of the hard drives have only 2 years, thats why.

In my country, the Alienware AW2518H-14 is 470$ and compared to other monitors with 240hz it's actually cheaper. Plus it's got one of the best TN panels and pleasing design. I really like it, and i think it is perfect for gaming. If you have any recommendations for another monitor, i am happy to know.

Which country do you live in? Do really need 240hz, most people don’t notice a difference between 240hz and 144hz?

Yeah, the Alienware one is good, but do you need 240hz?

Blacks are very loud and you won't notice the difference between that and a barracuda. 

 

I've had many barracuda drives without failure. You'll be fine. If you're that worried about it, go all SSD.

 

X570 doesn't provide you any benefit. Only thing you may get that for is PCIe 4, but nothing you have uses it so it's fine. The tomahawk board will overclock well.
