Hi, Make sure that the board is Ryzen 3000 Ready, otherwise you might need to update the BIOS. https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-X470-F-GAMING/HelpDesk_CPU/
Do you think it's worth 70€ more to buy Rog Strix X570-F Gaming?
Also, is it worth to save 55€ and buy Ryzen 7 2700X? I try to achieve the best balance here. In general i am not a competitive user, just some gaming with rarely play of new games and maybe some Autocad and that kind of staff. Not rendering software though. Do you believe i should demote to MSI RTX 2060 Super 8GB Gaming X and save 180€?

Board may need bios updated

I would have gone with faster ram, but 3000mhz is fine

Yes for some reason i could not find in the list the correct model. Actually i am going for Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4-3200MHz. Do you think it's worth to go to 32GB?? But i believe if i need in future i can just buy one pair more and install.

For gaming and multitasking, your fine with 16. you can just buy more in the future.

32gb will be nice for more multitasking.
 
This should be better...

Never, ever buy multiple pairs of RAM. If you're going to buy RAM it's always better to buy it all at once. The main reason is that way you guarantee that it was manufactured at the same time. Otherwise there's no guarantee that it would function properly or at all because there's many variables that go into making a RAM kit and if one is different then you might not get the advertised speeds or guarantee that they will work properly.
