Hi all, first time PC builder here, I played around on PcPartPicker for a little bit and did some research on potential parts and I think I have a build at the moment but would love feedback and advice.
I'll be using this pc for gaming, but I'm not quite looking for 4k or VR capability.
This build comes out to 1176.40 with Windows 10 included, but I'm trying to keep costs at 1200 or below

CPU

AMD - Ryzen 7 2700 3.2 GHz 8-Core Processor

CPU Cooler

Cooler Master - Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition 57.3 CFM CPU Cooler

Motherboard

Asus - TUF X470-PLUS GAMING ATX AM4 Motherboard

Memory

Corsair - Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory

Storage(s)

Seagate - Barracuda 2 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

Kingston - A400 240 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive

GPU

Zotac - GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB GAMING AMP Video Card

PSU

EVGA - SuperNOVA G2 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

Case

Corsair - Crystal 460X RGB ATX Mid Tower Case

I have the necessary peripherals in terms of keyboard and mouse, and I won't need any optical drives, but any other things you think I may need are welcome!

1200 what? What is your currency?
What monitor(s) will you be using with this system?
What exactly will the system be used for? An idea of games you'll play? Also, what other than games will you use the system for, if anything?

Zen 2 CPU's are a month away, so worth keeping that in mind.
Also, NVidia should have an announcement at E3 in less than a week. Some rumours suggest they could be launching an RTX 2070Ti, and some that the entire Turing line-up will get a price cut. AMD's Navi GPU's will also be announced with pricing at E3, so I'd hold off at least a week to see what comes from E3 before buying anything.

Sorry about that, my currency is USD. I'll be using a 144hz monitor with this build. Other than gaming the only other usage of this build will be browsing/schoolwork. Games are pretty varied, anything from Call of Duty to Minecraft to Overwatch, not a particular genre.
