(FIRST TIME PC BUILD) Help with hardware compatibility

[Flibbitybop]

So this is my first attempt at building a gaming PC and I'd like to have someones opinion on the parts I've picked out.
DISCLAIMER: My knowledge on computer hardware is limited.

 

The list I've compiled on PCPartPicker is linked below

 

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/ccCz4n

 

There are notes below that state the following:

"The MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON MAX WIFI ATX AM4 Motherboard has an additional 4-pin ATX power connector but the Corsair RMx 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply does not. This connector is used to supply additional 12V current to the motherboard. While the system will likely still run without it, higher current demands such as extreme overclocking or large video card current draws may require it."

 

"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."

 

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

 

Again, my knowledge on hardware is limited and would someone who has had experience with these particular pieces of hardware and possibly offer alternatives that would mitigate any potential issues at roughly the same price.

 

I've heard the wraith stealth cooler that comes with the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 sucks and went with the be quiet, dark rock pro, was this a good decision?

you only need the 8 pin. the extra one is used for heavy overclocking. and with ambient cooling you wont be able to do that. and the single 8 pin can provide 384w if power which with a 3600, you wont reach.

if you add an m.2, two sata ports will be disabled.

My budget is $1500-$2000 AUD ($2000 absolute max). Not looking for a god machine just want to be able to play modern AAA titles at a consistent 1080p, 60FPS (not saying these are the only games I'll be playing just using that as a metric) with the intention of upgrading components further down the line in a couple of years.

What is your budget? The PSU and GPU are out of stock so I don't have that much to go on
 

EDIT: nvm u posted it

I appreciate the suggestions but I'd like to know why these are better. Not doubting your knowledge or expertise it's just that I'm a major rookie when it comes to this.

sure.

cpu you chose is good.

the cooler is overkill, the 3600 doesn't produce that much heat, the one I picked is half the price and will do fine.

b550 motherboards have better vrms, will be compatible with 4000 series and support pcie 4. it has wifi and it's cheaper than the one you picked.

ram has the same specs, but much cheaper

I've picked a faster ssd

i've picked a much faster gpu, as the budget allowed for it

i've left the case, it's decent.

i've picked a good psu that's half the price of the one you picked.

changed to monitor to a cheaper one to fit the budget, still good VA panel 144hz

I'm going with the assumption that you're not going to overclock your RAM and you're going to leave your CPU at stock.

yeah nah i don't plan on overclocking I think that's the type of thing I'd feel comfortable if I had someone who knows about this stuff physically there with me to explain it to me.
Thanks for taking the time to make these suggestions for me, cheers!

1. The stock cooler that comes with the processor is fine.

2. This is still  a good motherboard but for cheaper.

3. Same spec ram but less expensive.

4. A graphics card which is much faster than the rx580!

5. No need for a rmx psu. This one is still great.

6. Good choice of case.

7. Cheaper monitor with exactly the same specs (144hz, VA panel etc.)
