Is AMD pricing competitive with Intel in your area?

I've never really considered AMD before so i really wouldn't know but i get my parts off aria or scan

The 4 sticks are just spares my friend had and im on a tight budget.

Personally would not consider an i5 give the Ryzen options.

Honestly I would avoid the i5's, the Ryzen 5 3600 is faster per clock, has twice the threads, is cheaper, and can also overclock. The same goes for the vanilla GTX 2070, the RTX 5700xt beats it for less. If you're going for a 2070, go for the 2070 super as that is about 8% faster than the RX 5700XT, but it does cost more. I've put my changes to your list below.
