Hi so I have decided to build a pc and it is composed of these components

Ryzen 5 3600x
Gtx 1660 super
Trident z 2x8gb 3200 mhz
B450 tomahawk max

are these compatible? And do any of these bottleneck each other? If so, what could be a better match? Thank you!

Yep it's compatible and it's a good pairing at 1080P+. Just make sure the memory is in the A2/B2 slots and XMP is enabled in the BIOS as that will ensure the memory runs at the correct speed, voltage & timings which you want as AMD Ryzen performs well with fast memory. If the budget allows your better off with 3600mhz memory for 3rd gen Ryzen but 3200 will work fine.

I'd say your CPU is superior compared to your GPU but it looks fine since you might wanna upgrade in the future and you can keep on with that CPU for a very long time unless there are other issues.
