This is a list that I have picked out of potential parts. I’m open to change on all parts except case and I’m looking for something that will allow for future upgrading. Thanks

I noticed you don't have a CPU, are you holding out for 5000 series? And what kind of games are you going to be playing? The 390x might be not worth your effort unless you have a fantastic deal on it. It's a very power hungry card. I'd see if you can get a polaris card rx480/580. Similar performance, much more power efficient.

There should’ve been a CPU when you click on the link but I had selected the Ryzen 5 3600x

Would also be playing games such as Call of duty Cold War, FIFA, Apex Legends
