My company has a budget of $1500 for a new 4K editing PC.
This parts list is what was recommended by our IT guy:

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600x
Motherboard: MSI X570 A PRO
RAM: 32GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200MHz (2x16GB)
GPU: EVGA RTX 2070 XC Gaming
PSU: EVGA 750GQ
Case: Cooler Master MB500
SSD (OS): Crucial P1 500GB NVMe
SSD: Samsung 860 EVO 500GB
HDD: 4TB WD Black 7200RPM
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit

Would this set up be good to edit 4K videos using Adobe Premiere.
We use an external RAID that has a USB C connector.

We are being charged $1475 for parts and labor.
Is this good to go or are there any parts that are overkill and can be swapped out to save us some money?

Do you know how much of it is being charged for labor? If time is of the essence then disregard the question. The build looks good though without information about where you're located and what your preferred site of purchase is, it's hard to say if you can get a better deal. Some people hail from regions outside of USA and post threads, making most of us think that they can do better when in reality they have already found the best in their region(price wise as well).
