Checking compatibility between your CPU and GPU is important. The Ryzen 5 3600 pairs well with the G.SKILL Trident Z Neo. Your RX 5700 GAMING OC 8G should work nicely with it, but ensure proper cooling. No major changes needed unless you want better performance or aesthetics.

It seems like a solid setup. I’d think about replacing the two SSDs with a single 1TB P1 and switching to the 5700X if the cost savings justify it.

The PC part picker will verify compatibility on your behalf. I find the H510 appealing because of its appearance and price.

Generally, most mid-tower ATX cases should fit this Gigabyte card. However, based on my experience with a Windforce 2070, I suggest considering other aftermarket options such as Sapphire, XFX, ASUS, and MSI. Reports indicate that the fans on those cards can be inexpensive and may develop bearing problems quickly. This is my personal observation.

I can confirm this. There are many problems with the wind force cards. With a 2070 S, if you don’t turn off the 0 rpm mode using the fans, the card will begin revving. Since these cards don’t have fans that operate at low speeds, they quickly switch from completely off to nearly maximum for a brief moment. If you can install MSI’s triple fan card, that would be ideal. Additionally, the NZXT H510 offers a great budget-friendly case.

For the R5 3600, an NVIDIA GPU like the RTX 3060 or RTX 3080 would offer the best performance.

You don't need to switch to a NVIDIA card if you want comparable results with one. For similar performance on a NVIDIA platform, I suggest the 2070 Super since older 2070 models are now rare. When choosing aftermarket options, consider MSI Trio, ASUS Strix, or EVGA cards. Avoid GIGABYTE and ZOTAC as they are cheaper but lack 0 RPM mode, meaning the card runs continuously with lower factory overclocking. I can confirm MSI is a solid choice.
