Just ordered the parts.
Everything seemed compatibl;e. What do you guys think?
Is the GPU capable of playing every game on highest settings?

Yup, gotta go with the others, a 5 or a 6 out of 10. The PC will play games just fine, but there's just so much performance left on the table for a $2K build.

- A $300 motherboard without parts that utilize the things that are the reasons for getting a $300 motherboard

- Spending a $100 premium for a 2070 Super with an extra frame or two per second.

- Inefficient use of money on storage solution, assuming this is a gaming build

- A good budget PSU in a $2000 build.

- A really poor performing case for $150. I can't sum it up any better than Steve Burke did.

The H510 Elite is a $170 case being launched alongside an $80 case that’s nearly identical, which itself is almost identical to a $70-$75 case that it’s replacing. The...

Overall 5/10. There is a lot of wasted money on components, see SSD and AIO. There are much cheaper versions that is as good or better for much cheaper. For the gaming it all depends on the resolution.
 
Personally, I think you overspent on your CPU Cooler, Motherboard, RAM, and SSD.
Don't know EVERY game, so I can't say you could play every game on highest settings. It will play every game well, just maybe not at the highest settings.

5/10 here as well.
-Overspent on the cpu cooler.
-Overspent on the motherboard
-Could've gone with dual channel 3600mhz memory
-Overspent on the SSD and didn't bother with a cost effective HDD for a game library. 250-500GB SSD for C drive only.
-Underspent on the psu

"Is the GPU capable of playing every game on highest settings?"
No.

Nice build.
I’d buy a more powerful PSU (850W) just to be more futureproof.
Rate: 6/10

The H510 Elite is a $170 case being launched alongside an $80 case that’s nearly identical, which itself is almost identical to a $70-$75 case that it’s replacing. The main differentiating feature is the NZXT Smart Device v2, and the fact that we haven’t even mentioned the existence of the H510i might give you a clue as to how we feel about that. We thought the H500 was a good buy at $70, and from what we’ve seen of the H510 it probably will be too--or $80, since that’s MSRP. Customers should strongly consider buying one of those instead and using the extra $90-$100 to choose their own fans or LEDs. If a clear front panel with RGB fans and disappointing thermal performance is an absolute necessity, buy a Level 20 MT instead and save some money.

- Nearly $150 for a 120mm AIO? That's painful.

Again, it'll play fine, but paying $2200 for a PC that's about a $1400 PC in terms of performance is enough for some serious demerits. It may sound harsh, but you did ask.

5 from me as well,as other people said you overspent on the already overpriced ROG parts,weak psu (for that build),could have done a better job with storage,dont really need 32gb of ram but ok+i dont like how its only 3200mhz,for ryzen (especially 3700x) you want faster ram,the gpu is good you could have gone with rx 5700 xt which is cheaper +same performance but ok,i like the case,and you cpu cooler choice is terrible .Heres how i would do it for 2200$:https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3tqKvW

Beats your price and performance. Tried to keep the looks, not the case I would pick and I would go with a decent air cooler but your the one that will be looking at the case everyday so to each their own their some people like the looks of different things.

Added another M.2 drive 500GB for the OS and programs and a full 1TB for whatever, better quality PSU, better CPU cooler, better video card.
Forgot to really look at the memory but you should be able to get 3600mhz with 16cas for the same price.
