The 3600x is not worth it over the 3600 unless the price difference is >10$. Better ram and GPU.

 

Edit : New parts are coming soon (RTX 3000 in september for example) so I would wait until then.

The B450 MAX will support the 4000 series CPUs. 

 

Can you find the Radeon RX 5700XT? Probably a better pick than the 2060 Super.

It will but will need a bios update (like B550 afaik). In any case I would suggest to wait that the stuff is out like new RTX, Big navi and Zen 4000.

yep rx 5700xt is around $40 more than rtx 2060 super but i was hesitant on picking it because of the driver issues i have read in some posts

The SX8200Pro has DRAM cache IIRC so yes it's worth it. SSDs aren't just capacity sizes.

Since we don't actually know how prices are where you live. It's a bit under the budget but it could be just around 1400 bucks where you live. 

2 things I want to say, the case: I would go with a p400a but that was out of stock sadly but you could go for that. 

And as for the 5700xt model, I accidentally chose a different model for the first build but you could go with either one. 

PC: Motherboard: ASUS B550M TUF-Plus, CPU: Ryzen 3 3100, CPU Cooler: Arctic Freezer 34, GPU: GIGABYTE WindForce GTX1650S, RAM: HyperX Fury RGB 2x8GB 3200 CL16, Case, CoolerMaster MB311L ARGB, Boot Drive: 250GB MX500, Game Drive: WD Blue 1TB 7200RPM HDD.

 

Peripherals: GK61 (Optical Gateron Red) with Mistel White/Orange keycaps, Logitech G102 (Purple), BitWit Ensemble Grey Deskpad. 

 

Audio: Logitech G432, Moondrop Starfield, Mic: Razer Siren Mini (White).

 

Phone: Pixel 3a (Purple-ish).
