According to PC part picker you should be ok. I am assuming you have an HDD to go along with that SSD

AMD Ryzen 3950x under a Noctua D15S, 32 Gb G Skill FlareX 3200 DDR4 running at 3200 CL14, Gigabyte Aorus Pro 570 Wifi, Gigabyte 2070 Super hooked to a Dell U2718Q 4k HDR monitor & an Acer 1440p 144hz IPS panel of some kind, an Inland 1 TB M.2 PCIE 4 main drive, a Samsung NVME M.2 250Gb, WD Blue 500Gb  and 1 TB SSDs, Corsair RMX750, Rainbows and butterflies...

Use pcpartpicker, it makes it easier.

 

Dont get a 212, youre using a lock CPU which comes with a stock cooler.

 

I don't know about that psu, but just get a cxm 450W.

You don't need to buy thermal compound, it comes pre-applied

That GPU is going to cost you around ~$100 more than its worth. Either go used (980-980ti) or get a 1060 3gb

Ion (Main Build)                                                                                        Overall Setup

Unless you're planning to upgrade for a K CPU later you should get a B360 motherboard which will come cheaper than Z370 boards

 

The Artic Silver 5 is not that great anymore, there are better offererings now such as the MX-4, Kryonaut and NT-H1

 

The 600W PSU is a tad overkill 500W is more than enough for your build 

 

Other than that it's fine

1. Kingston A400 is one of the slowest SSDs of its type. I'd pay a few dollars more for something like an Adata SU800/SP600/SP550, or Sandisk's SSD Plus.

 

2. This cooler isnt all that better than your stock cooler, and it's not like the stock cooler wont handle the 8400's heat output quietly anyway.

 

3. The 600 B1, or simply 600B, is an outdated group regulated unit and not a reliable one. EVGA is known for long warranties, but this one only has 3 years while good units from most brands have 5 or more.

Getting something tier 3 or above from the list. Also, 500W is enough.

Hard to say. Depends on where you buy them from. The GPU is going to be the one with a lot of variance from one seller to another. Try PC-part picker to see where the cheapest deals are. I'd try to replace the 3gb GTX 1060 with a 6gb one. The 3gb one is significantly slower (unrelated to memory size).
