Everything is compatible and generally well matched. I just question the RAM and the PSU.

Ryzen likes fast RAM, mobo supports up to 3200MHz.

You do not need 700W here, a 550W is more than enough.

Revised build, PSU is better quality, RAM is faster and build is $6 cheaper. I would recommend bumping the RAM to 16GB if you can find the money. No pricing on the GPU but it is the same in both builds.
