Need Help With PC Build

[Sanguinereptile]

Budget (including currency): $2000 - $2700 $AUD

Country: Australia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Games.

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

PARTS:

MONITOR:

 

Is this a good setup? This is my first time building a PC. I haven't bought the parts yet, but I have bought the monitor. Overall, are the parts good? Will they all work together well?

any advice or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks

i'd say if you haven't bought the parts yet you could wait for Big Navi and RTX 3xxx series GPUs cuz even if you won't need the extra power, you will see a drop in prices of Graphics cards which can make you go for a higher tier RTX 2080. Even for your CPU you could wait for Zen 3 as both Intel and AMD will drop their prices.

 

Otherwise, really solid build

I am not talking about replacing stuff. Just saying you could save a little bit more money if if you wait for the next-gen GPUs and CPUs.
