Spot Check my First PC Build

[PKCubed]

Budget (including currency): ~$2000

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Davinci Resolve, Games (Satisfactory...), FreeCAD, all sorts of stuff.

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): 

 

Hi! I just want to make sure I'm not doing something stupid before I start buying things.

I am planning to just throw my 1060 into this and get a GPU later. I put one in to round things out.

The case does not come with fans. You will need to add some.

 

You are investing over $1,900 and entrusting it to a $60 PSU? Consider a slightly less expensive NVMe drive and a better PSU.
