New to PC building, need advice.

[NewPCBuilder123123123]

Budget (including currency): $2000 CAD(including taxes and a monitor)

Country: Canada

Here is my build: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/XdwP4M, is there anything that i should change? I'll be using this pc for some gaming, some programming and just casual usage, i might also do some blender. 

 

 

[Why_Me]

That dual tower cpu cooler won't clear that RGB RAM due to the tall heatsinks on said RAM. Also I would consider 1080P.

4060 is baaaaad, in gaming at 1440P you need a better 4070

To stay on budget I've downgraded the CPU to a 12600K, 15% slower in games at 1080p (less at 1440P if you're GPU limited) and 4 less ecores but 30% cheaper

 

Also swapped the RAM for lower profile kit to have clearance for the cooler

That's an excellent cooler you chose. Just go with non RGB RAM and call it a day.
