         If you're doing some more intensive multitasking you may want to consider going with a higher end air cooler or possibly an AIO

    CL19 is pretty loose on the RAM. I'd spend a little bit more to get CL16 RAM at 3600Mhz. Also you've selected a SATA III SSD over an NVME drive. You can get considerably faster  throughput on with this. We're comparing 550-600MB/s on the SATA III drive up to 3500 read on the Gen3 NVME's and 5000 on the Gen4. I would look into this as well.

    Any 240/280MM AIO would be a good investment with a Ryzen 9 3900X. Even a 360MM if the case supports it isn't a bad idea. I like the EVGA CLC series pretty well. They're not the quietest but they perform well.
  • Thank you yes II have plauyed around a little with the list and I thin what I currently have down is a Nvme drive. Thank you I will take your advice on the Ram. Also, if I want to stick to air cooled, is there a good way to do that? By the way I appreciate your help.

    It'll do fine on the stock cooler. You don't need to upgrade the cooler unless you want to. If you're really wanting to stick to air and get better performance than the stock cooler, I think you'd have to go to an extreme like the Noctua NH-DH15. It's 165mm tall, make sure your case will fit it.
