You do not need a 850W PSU, that system will not pull more than 350W MAX from the wall. A 650W unit will more than suffice. Also what is the PSU model? 80+ gold does not mean it's any good, it could still be made with cheap components. 

Otherwise it looks fine, although a 3600x is really not worth it over a regular 3600.

I would go for a lower wattage psu and get more storage. The crucial p1 is a good budget 1tb NVMe.

I am far from an expert in this so please correct me if I’m wrong.

buy the non x version, is cheaper and it's the same and with the money you save you can buy a big cooler and you can overclock your cpu.
PSU is overkill just get a 650w.
You have low storage if you want to stream new games you're going to fill everything really soon. i think you should go with a mechanical drive + an ssd or if you don't mind you can change the ram with theHyperX Fury HX432C16FB3K2 3200MHz  which is 50€ cheaper and you can upgrade your storage capacity to a terabyte of ssd.
EDIT: even the mobo is overkill but i hope you're going to upgrade components later

Thank you all for your inputs. Definitely I will swap PSU with 650 watts. Although I have new doubt. I am going to order these components via Amazon, the delivery will be plus or minus few days and not all components will arrive on same day. Hence, with Ryzen 5 3600 cpu, ddr4 ram and x570 mobo, can I use Nvidia 7600GT graphics card to check the newly arrived components are working? Since, this graphics card I have lying around. And, using this GPU I want to check whether system post.

 

Please reply. Appreciate all your replies for the help. Thank you.

If you can wait get b550 it will have dmi4 for the cpu and will have a more robust vrm solution and as others said get the non x

It has the same ipc imc and FUP has the 3600x it is just less binned

Thank you for your prompt reply. Appreciate your help. Definitely I am considering to go for non X version of Ryzen 5 3rd gen. Although, due to pandemic situation in India, x570 mobo not available online to purchase and other B450 are not 3rd gen ready. This is like never ending scuffle.

I suggest waiting for b550 

It will be alot better than b450 and it will be cheaper than x570

^ around the same budget I think as the parts you've put together, just some fairly minor changes. I'd personally also throw in something like an NH-U12S or Dark Rock 4 for the CPU but the stock cooler should also work fine, as long as you don't intend on overclocking/playing around with PBO.

idk where you are from but in EU you have 2 years of waranty so if you buy things you have 2 years to see if they work + we have the right of withdrawal, so you have 30 days to see if you like them and if you don't like them you can give them back to amazon. you can use that gpu to check if everything works

@deathfrankcore I belong to India, and here the Amazon return policies are restricted to only 10 days. And surplus this pandemic and lockdown situation is causing scarcity of good products.

@Mateyyy Thats helpful. Thanks a lot for all the help provided. Appreciate it.

 

@TofuHaroto Waiting for b550? AAhhh...my daily game streams are stalled....
