I'm making my first Desktop, so would like to ask for help from you guys for advice on components I could change. I already asked for help here once before and I got plenty of great ideas. I know you are spending your time but it would really help!

Thank you!
P.S.: Where I live the PSU in this build is cheaper so no need changing it.
 
You're throwing your money away on the thermal compound. And you could also drop to the standard R5-2600 and then upgrade your motherboard to an ATX board. And that PSU is way too expensive for a $1K rig.

This is what I would do:

That would be a much better use of $1,000.
 


Problem is, I already bought the Motherboard :/
Even worse the EVGA RTX 2060 is 445€(amazon.de)
