Hello, I am going to build a pc using new pieces from Newegg and a few from my current setup. I would like to know if there are any things I need to change, or just advice on parts to use for my pc.
My parts include:
CPU-(i5-9600k ($365) or i7 8700($416) I'm not sure which one I want to get but input would be gladly accepted 😀
GPU- 1660 6gb
PSU- Cooler Master 750w
Memory- Corsair Vengeance DDR4 2400 16gb (2x8gb)
Motherboard- ASRock z390 pro4 (Comes in a bundle with the CPU and links for the bundle is below 😀 )
i5 Bundle- https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.3878867&Description=i5 9600k combo
i7 Bundle- https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.3885905&Description=i7 8700 combo
If there is anything you would like to say or mention I would gladly like to hear it thanks again :)
Edit: As I don't yet have the GPU, CPU, Ram, or Motherboard would a 750w power supply and an i7-2600 work with a 1660 6gb? Thanks.

Some comments on your current list:

1. I5-9600K will be much better for you.
The z390 motherboard will allow you to overclock.
You will need a cooler since the 9600K does not come with one.
Assuming your case has 160mm available, the low end would be a $35 scythe kotetsu; the high end would be a
$85 noctua NH-D15s.

2. Your drive selections are strange. 120gb is too small for a windows drive. Past that adata is not what I would buy. It has some 22% negative reviews:

Hybrid drives are good for laptops, but not really good for desktops. The underlying 5400 HDD is built for battery savings, not performance.

Save a bit and buy a 500gb Samsung 860...
Model for that 750W PSU...? I don't trust CM's wattage on their PSU's unless you spend for the high end units. How old is the PSU? You will need a DDR4-3200MHz dual channl ram kit to bring the best out of your purchase.

What are you doing for storage?

the powe supply is RS-580-EMBA. I belive i got it 1-2 years ago and it has been used for a system that requires 300w.
For storage i have
128gb ssd (mainly for os)
500gb sshd
1Tb hard drive
And i am planning on getting another 1tb in the future

Save a bit and buy a 500gb Samsung 860 EVO for $78.
Samsung evo is better from a reliability and performance point of view.
That will hold a fair number of games.
If you later need more room for storage, a HDD is easy to add later.

I think you needed to look for a GTX1660ti, here is one:

The PSU is unfamiliar to me.
But, if it has worked for you, I would go ahead and use it.
850w is more than enough. 550w would be sufficient.
If you are inclined to buy a new psu, look for Seasonic focus in 550 or 650w.
