First Build Mini ITX

[Atom G]

Have been very interested in pc gaming for a while. currently i game on a xbox or my razer blade 15 laptop running a 1060maxQ. It wasnt until i started playing the new darkitide game i realized im kinda of outmatched now in modern gaming. Ive done what i feel is a decent amount of research and have put together a list of parts which pass most compatibility checks. Im looking for any last minute recommendations for things i missed or if you think i can get a better bang out of my setup goal. Im pretty set on the Dan A4 case h20, but the rest is up for change. 
GOALS

This will be primarily for gaming with some like school work, pretty confident if my laptop can run it most things will also be able to. I really play about everything on my 1440p 144hz monitor, which is what ill aim for. Anything from rust to battlefield 2042 or even Minecraft. Ive been playing only on low settings for everything to get the best fpc or really usable fpc. So looking forward to trying to play games that look good as well as run well. 
BUDGET

The current list is roughly 1400-1500 usd and im not looking to go above it. I understand what the looks like for gaming wise.

NOTES

The two fans are to replace the radiator fans. An i am aware i will need to flash the bios to be compatible with the 13th gen cpu. My biggest worry about my current list is the motherboard but it seems impossible to find any other good options without getting a 300$ board. Thanks for any help and recommendations.

Overall not a bad build, though a couple things I'd want to change:

1. The motherboard. That ASRock board has a very bad VRM, and if a situation where you won't have active airflow over it it won't really be able to deal with a 13600K under full load without limiting the power limit severely and therefore reducing performance. The Gigabyte Z690i Aorus Ultra DDR4 is currently priced about $30 cheaper and has a much better built VRM, so I see no reason to go for the ASRock board over the Gigabyte board. 
2. The RAM. You can get kits that have the same specs as that one for about $20 less, and if you want to step down to 3200 CL16 (realistically it's only slightly slower), you can save $30. 
3. The 980 Pro is very overkill for the vast majority of people, a Crucial P3 is a fair bit cheaper and would be basically indistinguishable in performance compared to the 980 Pro outside of benchmarks. 
4. Using the money saved everywhere else you should be able to step the GPU up to a 6750 XT (it's only about $30 more for about a 10% performance uplift), or you can just pocket it and use it for some more games.

Thats what i heard alot of about that motherboard so thank you for that. 
thank you very much for the pro tips ill adjust my build sheet in line with that because more gpu is always better. 
thanks for taking the time to help me.

• This case supports mATX with no drawbacks
• You can use an ATX PSU with the GPU mounted horizontally,. which I would do anyway otherwise you are limited to a very short GPU.  The UD850 is pretty small for an ATX 850 but is a good unit.  I'd want an 850 if I'm buying new for a system like this.
• No reason to get the Gen 3 Crucial P3 when the Gen 4 Kingston NV2 is cheaper per GB.  You can get a 2TB NV2 for $110. 
• The regular TR PA120 is in stock PCPartPIcker just always has issues listing it.
• The 6950xt is also not really worth $80 more than the 6900xt.  They are within margin of error of each other, and both GPUs will play games way faster than they need to for a while.
