looks good, you've picked good components that are compatible, I see no issues with it.

There are some warnings at the bottom but they are very vague.

• Warning!Some AMD B450 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Matisse CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions

The msi MAX series cpu come with the corerct bios, so don't worry about that.

 

• Note:The motherboard M.2 slot #1 shares bandwidth with SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports. When the M.2 slot is populated, two SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports are disabled.

Exactly what it says. if you put in the m.2 slot, 2 sata ports will be disabled. but there are 4 (I think) other sata ports for you to use anyway.

 

• Note:Some physical dimension restrictions cannot (yet) be automatically checked, such as cpu cooler / RAM clearance with modules using tall heat spreaders

It should all fit ok.

Agreed.

What are you going to use the build for? You could go with an EVGA 2060 KO and get a nice boost in productivity tasks as it uses the same die as the 2080 - no benefits in gaming though, so something to consider if productivity is part of your use case.
