What do you guys think? Anything I could improve on other than upgrading GPU in the coming months.

    Hello! Welcome to the community! 
    I noticed a few things that I would recommend changing.

    The 3900X, while it's a great CPU, isn't really targeted for gaming. I'd recommend going with a 3700X instead, or going with a 3600 and then upgrading to the 5600X which outperforms the 3900X in gaming. 
    I'd also recommend an M.2 drive instead of a 2.5" SSD. One last thing I noticed was that you selected Windows 10 Pro 32-bit. I'd recommend Windows 10 Home unless the pro version is needed.  I'd always recommend 64-bit as you will not be able to utilize the full performance of your system with the 32-bit version. 
    Hope this helps. 
  • Thank you for the feedback. Didn't even notice those few little things. Must have looked right over them. Landshark, I am looking to grab a 3000 series in the coming months. I actually have someone willing to sell me an ASUS Dual RTX 3070. If I were to buy that would that change anything you recommended above?

    Very nice high end build and not much to recommend. I would say the only thing that you might consider is a nvme drive if you haven't already. Since the build already has 4 Terabytes of storage, I think that a 500-gigabyte nvme drive such as this: https://www.microcenter.com/product/622291/wd-blue-sn550-500gb-3d-tlc-nand-pcie-gen-3-x4-nvme-m2-2280-internal-ssd from micro center is enough. If you want the highest-end stuff, as I can see with your build, a Samsung 980 Evo is the highest end currently. 980 Evo: https://www.microcenter.com/product/628176/samsung-980-pro-series-500gb-ssd-v-nand-pcie-gen-4-x-4-nvme-m2-2280-internal-solid-state-drive. Also would recommend if getting one, try to transfer things you always access like the os to it. You will see at the very least 2x the speed of the current already fast sata SSD. In the end, even the lowest end nvmes are faster than every hard drive and most sata ssds.

    Also as Landshark says, get a 64-bit OS. I'm sure that 32 bit only supports like 4Gb of ram. I'd try to remove the hard drive (unless you need the storage) and go for a 5900x later. Otherwise, follow Landshark's steps. They will help. If you aren't doing professional workloads, I recommend a 5th gen ryzen 5/7. Other than that, I hope you enjoy the pc that you will build.

    I'd say the 3070 would go great with the parts I recommended above. It'll give you a nice FPS boost!
