Hi so ive descided to try again to make a new computer with some changes in components! i would love some feedback and ideas i got a budget of 1500$ ish so currently the setup im looking to buy is looking like this. I would love suggestions and ideas to maybe make it cheaper or better for the budget ive got! I currently live in norway so i have limited access to certain components but i will do my best to try them. I am also new and i learned that i gotta make sure that i match my Ram with cpu and motherboard. I hope i did it correctly this time.

Current components for new rig!
Svive Halo S650 Midi Tower
Gainward GeForce RTX 2060 Ghost
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
CM ML120L V2 ARGB
HyperX Fury RGB DDR4 3200MHz 16GB (8x2)
WD Blue SN550 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD
ASUS TUF GAMING B550-PRO motherboard
Corsair TX650M, 650W PSU

I mainly play competetive shooter games, valorant and csgo but also games like tarkov for fun.

Current rig
ASUS B150M-A, S-1151
i7-6700
MSI GeForce GTX 1060 6GB OC
HyperX Fury DDR4 2133MHz 8GB
Seagate Barracuda 1TB
Cooler Master B600 VER.2, 600W PSU
 
Hi, so this is what i came up with:
PCPartPicker Part List

CPU: Intel Core i7-10700F 2.9 GHz 8-Core Processor (kr2959.00 @ Proshop)
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition 57.3 CFM CPU Cooler (kr575.50 @ CDON NO)
Motherboard: ASRock B560 Pro4 ATX LGA1200 Motherboard (kr2372.00 @ Proshop)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18 Memory (kr2163.00 @ Proshop)
Storage: Western Digital Blue SN550 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive (kr1118.00 @ Proshop)
Case: Phanteks Eclipse P400A Digital ATX Mid Tower Case (kr1068.00 @ Proshop)
Power Supply: SeaSonic FOCUS 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply (kr1381.00 @ kl.ink)

The 10700F performs the same as 5600X (which is better than 3700X) in gaming while being cheaper and it offers 2 more cores and 4 more threads.
32gb should be a pretty good upgrade.
You would be perfectly fine with 16gb of ram, but with the given budget, 32gb was a option.
P400A already comes with 3 beautiful RGB fans and mesh front panel, which allows air to travel through the front panel to the inside of the case.
Hyper 212 rgb will have no problem's cooling the 10700F as the cpu isnt powerhungry.
I just swapped out the psu's since i trust Seasonic's one more.
Forgot to mention the GPU.
Your 1060 6gb will be fine for the games you play.
As soon as this GPU market situation is over, you should be able to grab great GPU's for even greater price!
