nvidia recommends 650w for that card so id do that.

you may want to swap you drive out for a 970 evo its the same price and a bit faster

id either go for a cheaper motherboard since youre not using some of the features ot a 500 series more expensive one that utilizes pce gen 4 for your 3060

probably want to ditch the cooler. Amd cpus come with one and the one you picked wouldnt do any better

 

otherwise everything else looks good

The pure rock slim really isn't anything special, I suggest keeping the stock cooler of the 3600 instead. You can get a slightly cheaper motherboard and SSD, and get a higher quality power supply. The monitor you picked is a bit expensive for a mere 1080p 60Hz option, I suggest looking to the used market and then saving up for something like this, a high refresh rate monitor.

cheaper MB or a 500 series so up can upgrade CPU in the future.

650W would be nice, but 600 can do too.

But if you find a higher W for cheaper with a good rating, then more is better

for coolers, the standard AMD one should do okey or go with an AIO cooler.

The list that Fasauceome posted seems good to me. But you don’t need to buy a windows key at full price. You can buy them from eBay (or other key selling sites) for significantly less and with buyer protection, if it doesn’t work you can get a refund.
