First Build

Chance

This is going to be my first computer that I have built and a friend has helped me get started by gifting me a RTX 2060 to get started. I have about $1000 for everything else but I do not know where to really start. I am hoping to play racing sim games because after I build the pc I am going to get a wheel for it, and I also love playing milsim games. I am open to any and all suggestions thanks.

This is what I have kind of put together so far....

Greetings. That seems great for the price. You really don't need a water cooler for that processor, the included CPU air cooler should do the job for you. So you can cut that out if you'd like and allocate the money from that elsewhere.

I appreciate the advice, what would you recommend changing up, if anything, if I go without the AIO?

Not really, everything you picked out is very solid!
