How about finding a well-priced and positively reviewed B550 motherboard? At the least, you'll be able to upgrade to a PCIe 4.0 m.2 SSD in the future with no issues.

Or, do you mean to say you already bought those parts and haven't assembled the PC yet? If that's the case, then this advice is moot. :v

What is the budget?

 

One big nono is the Gigabyte psu. It is about one of the worst psu's you can buy right now and WILL randomly die on you killing your system.

 

No reason for such a mediocre aio when a sycthe fuma 2 is better and cheaper.

 

Try going for a b550 board to give you some more options the gaming carbon is usually priced the same as good b550 boards.

 

An alternative to the 220t is the 4000D icue. Not saying you should switch to it but both are often priced the same so pick whichever you like.

 

What will your gpu be?

If you can, change the CPU & motherboard to an 11400F + B560 (or H570 if that's cheaper). Should cost the same and is slightly faster. Also note that both the 11400F and 3600 don't have an iGPU, so you will need a GPU. If you don't have one, go for the 11400 instead.
