I recently assembled my rig and checked those motherboards—they’re not compatible with the CPU and GPU you plan to use. The VRMs aren’t well cooled, which makes it hard to upgrade later. I’m certain never to skimp on the PSU and motherboard. Regarding the R5 2600, it’s a solid CPU with two extra cores compared to the 3500 series, but I believe a quad-core processor is sufficient for gaming. Plus, the 3000 series models are designed better and handle heat more efficiently. For your new build, it makes sense to opt for the latest options (in my view).
