I am looking to build a new system, as my last build was in 2012. looking for $1K range, assuming I can use PS listed below, it is old not sure of compatibility issues as I haven't kept up with latest components.
Have monitor, keyboard, windows 10, (2) 512G SSD- Crucial CT512MX and ADATA SU800 512 as well as Hitachi SATA 1 TB HD. I have OS running on the Crucial, ADATA empty and SATA HD files, etc. Planned to use ADATA to run Davinci Resolve and save some files there, but most to 1 TB for now.
Current PS is very old, not sure if it will still be compatible.
hec Zephyr MX 750 750W Peak Output ATX12V

I have used an earlier response to start and wonder if it is reasonable to use the old PS?

MSI MPG X570 GAMING PLUS Gaming
EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER XC ULTRA GAMING
(2) G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) 32GB total
AMD RYZEN 7 3700X 8-Core 3.6 GHz
Rosewill Challenger S ( I have blueray drive I want to keep although not sure why? I still want to.
CORSAIR Hydro Series H75 2018 (it may not need is, but there is space in the case and i figure better safe than sorry?

Let me know if this is reasonable for compatibility. I believe at this time it would run around $1100.

Thanks a bunch, this is super helpful and appreciate everyones time in offering free assistance.

Just to be sure you're looking to edit 4k video and game at a much lower resolution, correct?
I'm generally taking 4k and outputting at 1080. Haven't even installed Davinci yet, been using Shortcut. My gaming is minimal, and my current system does what I need so I would think this would do that plus a bunch more.
Currently running a phenom 2 965 BE with 8GB Ram and GTX 1050 ti.
Does that make sense? I'm not planning on making more than 20-30 min videos. Hope this is the info your looking for?

I have read that the stock Ryzen cooler works rather well. Is this what I should stick with and skip the aio cooler? Or are there better air coolers I should look at? Not planning on constant heavy loading.

Oh! Just a heads up, because this has been catching many people by surprise, but these Ryzen 3000 cpus are very 'bursty' at low loads.
You will notice higher idle temps than what you're used to. That is normal for these chips. It will be FREQUENTLY waking up and putting to sleep cores as it needs them.
It would be a good idea to set a custom fan curve in the bios.
