any suggestions?

Looks good but you won't be needing the thermal paste. The CPU cooler comes with it reapplied. 
I would lower the SSD space (as i would just put the OS on there) and go for faster RAM. THis however depends on RAM prices.

-get at least 3000mhz memory for ryzen

-msi's am4 boards are crap

-sandisk plus ssds are no good because they are dramless (see the techquickie on it)

-i suggest to wait for the gpu stock apocalypse to end

-the wraith spire has thermal paste preapplied

I disagree, look for a good deal on a used card. If you can find a GTX 780 or 780Ti, this are still pretty good cards and can be found for decent prices, check your local Craigslist listings. Basically anything pre-Pascal(GTX 10-series) or Polaris(AMD RX series) would be good choices for gaming, but definitely don't get anything lower than a GTX 750Ti.

I've not had any experience with Kingston, but I've heard good things about HyperX(a subsidiary of Kingston). Corsair and G.Skill are some of the more commonly used brands for RAM.
