• For a gaming build, a Ryzen 5 3600 / 3600X would perform better. Zen 2 is far better for gaming than previous generations. Also, the T2 cooler wouldn't be much better than the stock cooler that the 2700X comes with, plus it doesn't have RGB.

• 32GB of RAM is rather overkill. 16GB will be more than enough. You will also want to increase RAM speed. I would suggest 3600mhz if you go with a Zen 2 CPU, otherwise 3000/3200 is just fine. Ryzen thrives off of fast RAM and 2400 would not cut it.

• Just throwing this out there but for the price, the AMD 5700 XT outperforms the 2070 and even competes with the RTX 2080 Super in some cases. It's also cheaper.

• I would definitely get a better power supply. The one that you chose looks a bit sketchy to me due to lack of reviews and also the price. The PSU is certainly not something to cheap out on. I would suggest nothing less than a Corsair, EVGA, SeaSonic or Whisper PSU.

• I would also suggest a better case just because of your budget and the hardware that will be inside but that's purely up to you. I know it can be hard finding a case that still supports an optical drive. Maybe an external one would be something to consider that way you could get a relatively new and more premium case?

Definitely quite a few changes I'd suggest.

CPU - You're not going to see any added benefit from more cores for gaming. Change this to a Ryzen 5 3600. Likewise, the cooler you've picked isn't worth the money at all. Spend a little more on a better air cooler, or run stock. Thermal paste isn't needed either.

Motherboard - Not sure how good a bargain B450 board will be. I'd look at the MSI Tomahawk as it's one of the best budget friendly options for a B450 board.

RAM - Definitely don't need 32GB of RAM, and in addition you want to get faster stuff as Ryzen CPU's scale much better with faster RAM. Something like 3200mhz would be a good start.

Storage - Definitely would be a good idea to tweak for better storage. You can get faster SSD's for not much money these days.

GPU - Definitely spring for a 2070 Super with this budget. It's just a better GPU.

PSU - Just no. This is a very poor area to try and cheap out in a PC build. Get a PSU from a reputable manufacturer.

This has a newer and faster CPU, faster memory, a better motherboard, better storage, a better GPU, and a much, much better PSU. It's also slightly cheaper.
