I don't see any issues at all. But a couple questions...

1)The value of the 9600K isn't as good compared to the Ryzen 3600. Plus, should all 6 threads ever be used up, the performance of the 9600K drops off rather significantly.
Is there a reason for selecting this cpu over the other?

2)Same deal as the first point, but with the RTX 2060 Super you've selected vs the RX 5700. Reason?

the reason behind it is nothing scientific or super logical or anything. im not going to be streaming, nor am i going to be doing any video rendering. and when i am playing games i only have my main monitor turned on so i can focus on the game itself. and if im being honest im just not a fan of amd even with the improvements they have made. i dont hate them or people who like them. I am just not a fan myself is all.

Thanks for that.
I don't see any compatibility issues with what you've put together, so enjoy!

There’s no reason to be a “fan” of a company, AMD has a better platform atm so you should go for them. Go where the performance is.

One thing ,you pick some pretty expensive thermal paste,the cooler comes with a tube of Noctua's own which should work fine. I personally would test with that first before paying that much money for maybe a few degrees difference.
Just trying to keep cost down.;)
