Sup, I'm gonna build a PC soon and I would like some opinions. My budget is a max of 1,300$. Currently, I am considering these specs:

Intel i7-9700K
EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 
ASUS ROG Strix Z390-E 
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Corsair Vengeance 16GB 2666 MHZ
Crucial MX 525GB 
EVGA 600 Watt Bronze
Corsair Carbide 100R
Keep in mind I'm rather inexperienced when it comes to building a computer.

Okay. Nvm what I said previously. If you mainly want to game, get the 3600 build with the 2080 super [it will go a little over budget so you may want to save a little bit more] (except use the

  MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX, G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 Memory, 
Cooler Master MWE Gold 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply, the

 and Fractal Design Meshify C ATX Mid Tower Case)

If you want to do things like  Adobe PS, video editing or other things, go with the 3700x 2070S build. 

I am NOT a professional and a lot of the time what I'm saying is based on limited knowledge and experience. I'm going to be incorrect at times.
