Hello,

I'm going to build a new gaming PC soon and i'm on a budget of around 900$. I have selected the parts shown below but i'm not sure if those are the right ones for my system to work without any problems.

CPU: Ryzen 7 2600X
CPU FAN: Stock
Motherboard: Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro
RAMs: GSkill Aegis 16GB DDR4 3000mhz (2x8)

PSU: Coolermaster Elite v3 600W
Storage: Samsung 860 Evo 500 GB + Samsung 970 Evo Plus 250GB
Case: Be quiet pure base 600

About motherboard i'm between Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro and Gigabyte X470 Aorus Ultra gaming.
And for graphics card i'm thinking about getting Gigabyte geforce GTX 1660 6 GB OC instead of rx580..
What's your advice? And what changes you think i should made for a better system?

Little over budget but is worth it. Extremely powerful and next tier performance compared to RX 580/590 and GTX1660Ti. A good 60%+ increase in performance over your list.
All high quality components.

Horrible quality, on the power supply. Gaming rig does not need a 970 evo. A sabarent rocket, or intel 660p is plenty.

Thank you all for the replies, I think it's important to say that the PC i'm trying to build it's going to be used only for 1080p gaming on a 1920x1080 monitor. Also a litle bit of video editing maybe on vegas/after effects rendering.

Then it makes more sense to have R7 2700X over R6 3600 as in games there is no big noticeable difference, but if you plan to use Vegas you will notice difference of having two extra cores and four extra threads.

I was thinking to have a small M.2 nvme just for the system to work fast maybe some editing programs also in it like photoshop/vegas/OBS and then ssd's for games (i don't need it for high end games). Maybe a 660p 512gb and then ssd's?

I can't buy 5700XT because its pretty expensive from the e-shop i'm going to use. The GPU has to be a GTX 1660 (not TI) or RX580 and for CPU a ryzen 7 2600x. So i'm looking for a system that it's compatible with the mentioned parts witch can run properly without any future problems or malfunctions.

Where are you located. Please provide more details and limitations you have.

It will be meaning less to have separate SSD for dedicated gaming and one for OS and other software. Instead purchase one good one to accommodate for both.

I live in greece, and because of the economical crysis that we have, there are some restrictions on what includes online payments. But this doesn't matter so much because i'm not able to pay with credit card. I'm buying every part from this E-shop: LINK

EDIT: I'm gonna pay everything on the delivery.

You should have given us the local area and price from start, it would have been easy for us to provide a list.
It is completely worth spending that little extra. You can save a bit by going with R7 2700 instead of 2700X and OC it, it will bring down price to 860. Link below

I'm reading that this GPU has high temperatures, do i need any GPU cooling system or better case for good airflow? I don't know about this case if it has good airflow.

Maybe i should get some other case? For future installations on bigger CPU fan?

No problem that case can handle big enough air coolers with no problem. If you wanna max out air cooler in future get this case instead. Corsair 200r can fit in biggest air coolers without any problem.

That GPU will definitely be noisy under load but will not throttle much. That will be blowing hot air outside of the case as it is so no problem as it will not be heating up things inside of the case.
