My First PC Build, How'd I do ?

Budget (including currency): Rs.1,30,000(inr)

Country: India

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for:
Games-
 Lots of games. I wanna be able to play most of the AAA titles for at-least the next 1-2 years, I also will be playing a lot of RainbowSixSeige, Valorant, COD, etc. Also i really want it to be a decent VR capable system.
Programs- I will also be using the pc for programs(3D rendering, editing, etc) such as Unity, Blender, Adobe, etc. I will also be doing some light streaming and recording

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): 
 

Existing Part List: (PC-Partpicker Link - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/2GkrQD)
 

CPU- AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 3.8 GHz 6-Core Processor


Motherboard- MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX II ATX AM4 Motherboard
 

RAM- Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory
 

Storage- Crucial P1 3D NAND NVMe PCLe M2 SSD

 

GraphicsCard- Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB OC Video Card
 

Case- Fractal Design FD-CA-MESH-C

 

PowerSupply- -Antec High Current Gamer Gold 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
 

I hope to be able to game at 1440p(or)1080p res and 50-60+(or)100+ fps on most of the titles, and also a good VR experience


My budge is not strictly Rs.1,30,000 I can go a bit higher if its worth it , but I'd really prefer not to as Ive got a bunch of peripherals such as fans, monitors(I'm going dual), keyboard, etc and also a bunch of extra such as A Nintendo switch, Occulus Quest 2, etc

Please remember I'm from India, the prices here are not pretty(to say the least). For example, the same Build costs around 1200-1300$(These GPU's are giving me a heart-attack) while in india it goes all the way upto 1720$(Rs.1,30,000), I've also read around that a 1080 is better than 2060 but the 1080 in India is around Rs1,00,000 which is basically my budget(LOL) while the 2060 is Rs.55,000. Where I am at, amazon is really the only option, so please recommend those available on amazon.in if you could.

To summarize- I could go above the budget if worth it(Price and performance wise)

I'm planning on buying this around August

Thank you all for you're help

 

*UPDATE*:

After lots of forum posts and the vast majority of kind people pointing out that I went overkill with the ssd and could do better on psu, made a couple of changes. 

 

So after googling a bit, I found that a 3060(NOT 3060ti-this costs literally my budget) is not that much more than the 2060 (about Rs. 20k more), is it worth the upgrade?? Or do I stick with the 2060 and upgrade like a couple years later?? And if It is worth it, what sort of cooling am I looking at, I currently have 5 fans in the case and a stock cooler for cpu, is this enough for a 3060 or do I need more??

no because I was on a school device

Anyway why are you recommending this? OP wants to build a PC, not a crappy prebuilt.

This is still overpriced and doesn't give you the experience building one does.

No....

It is a 10400 paired with a B460 board. When on B460, the RAM is capped at 2666/2933 depending on the CPU. The 10400 only allows for 2666 on B460. The RAM may physically be "3000" but it will only run at 2666, which gives about a 15% performance detriment compared to a 10400 with 3200MHZ

The he can change the mobo to msi b460 thomhwak which will give him 2933 mhz atleast the closest one and then down grade the memory to 3000 or less

That's not how it works, it would still be 2666MHZ RAM. The type of B460 doesn't matter. If it's a b460 and a 10400, it will run at 2666MHZ no matter what.

Go and check the b460 runs 2933 mhz

when you have an i7 it does. The tomahawk is listing the max speed possible. The max speed possible is on the i7. i5s can only go up to 2666MHZ on all B460 boards

Please stop spreading misinformation 😞

Bro this might help you https://www.ant-pc.com/gaming-pc/pharaoh/ant-pc-pharaoh-il400

Here you can get pc at reasonable rate check out if this is helpful

Thanks for the tip buddy 

 

I'm no pc geek as seen from the title(so take this with a bucket of salt) but from what little I know you're recommendation looks great(how'd they manage to get a 3060 under 120000 in these times lol) 

 

But I probably won't be taking it as

1)I really wanna build a pc 

2)I really wanna go amd(mainly because I've been brainwashed that amd is just better than Intel but also for upgradability down the line) 

3)I want an ssd only(idk if you can modify that pre-built so forget this reason if you can lol) 

 

So yeah, thanks for the tip tho much appreciated

if you want to build the pc then i will suggest to go with ryzen 5 3400g and b550 motherboard and wait for now to get a GPU price down cause i am also from India and its hard to get one now and integrated gpu is good enough to play games. Give me some time i will make a list for you from amazon.

Well I can do this much for if you want any changes you can ask the total cost is Rs64,435 (without GPU) .So use the rest of the money for GPU (better to wait cause it is not currently availabe ) and  peripherals, get a better monitor and the reason to use a 650W PSU is you will also have an option to upgrade in future to put parts that use a lot of power.
