I'd love this system to last at least 4-5 years, and I just wondered if it's doable. Haven't bought anything yet except for the case and rear fan, so all parts can be subject to change if anyone thinks there's a better option. Parts are as follows:

Case: Corsair Obsidian 500D SE
Fans: 3 x Corsair LL120 RGB (Front) 1 x Corsair LL120 RGB (Rear)
CPU: i7-9700k@3.6GHz
Liquid Cooling: Corsair Hydro 115i RGB Platinum 280mm (Top)
Motherboard: MSI Z390 CARBON PRO
GPU: MSI RTX 2070 GAMING Z (Will be running 2 monitors, one @ 1440p and the other @ 1080p)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO (2 x 8gb, 3200MHz)
PSU: Corsair RM850X
SSD: Samsung EVO 970 (250GB)
HDD: 2TB WD Black (Not too bothered about this lasting, mainly the SSD)

I'm mostly concerned about the GPU and CPU, I'd like them to last 4 years, 5 at a stretch, as well as whether or not the motherboard is a good choice for this build, or if there are any better options around the £2000, $2600 mark :)
Thanks a lot for any help, as I'm in dire need :D
 
Well do you have £2000 or $2600 USD?
If you have £2000 then its equivelant to $2000 (because everything has and always will be Pound for Dollar (just check prices).

The system seems fine for that price, but is the SSD an Nvme?
The new Evo Plus are out about now which are better
 
Bumped to 9900k and 2080 :
