Help Me - First PC build

[B14nnc4]

Budget (including currency): $1000- $1200 AUD

Country: Australia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming (Steam, Watch Dogs, CoD, Rainbow Six Seige, etc.) and University

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): 

 

Hi, I'm about to build my first PC soon and this is what I have come up with, I'm looking for suggestions and areas of my build that I can improve on. 

 

Also since the pandemic has occurred, I was wondering what would be the the best time to purchase these parts, would it be Black Friday, Christmas sales or new Years?

 

Thank You

I'd swap the 3600 for a 3300X and get a 1660 Super with the money saved. Also I'd opt for a better motherboard, the ASrock B450(M) Pro4 isn't that much more expensive and will be better. And depending on how much you like the look of the H510, I'd get a Phanteks P300A instead it has much better airflow.

 

If you want this pc now, I'd get it on Black Friday or Cyber Monday.

 

Here's what I would get.
