Is this PC just for gaming? Or are you going to be doing other stuff on it too? And you definitely get a SSD, and different mobo. Case I would also change as it isn't the best cooling wise, but if you like the looks then it's whatever. 

Also I would look into the Radeon 5700xt as an alternative to the RTX 2070 as it's cheaper, but just as if not more powerful.

If needed you can cut the GPU down to a 2070 super but for a gaming PC I suggest a Ryzen 5 3600 instead.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad
