My questions are:
  1. Should I change any parts or do these work well together?
  2. Which shipping company/service etc should I use, to cheaply and SAFELY get my PC parts to Estonia?
  3. How much is the shipping going to cost?

Thanks in advance,
Rasmus
 
all these are great choices, you could maybe consider the 1660ti over the 2060 as it is cheaper and it trades punches with the 2060 meaning that they are very close in price. you could also consider the 5700(xt) little more expensive but will blow that poor 2060 out the water 😉
