Hey everyone, I have officially finished building my complete parts list for my first ever PC build. I have chosen all of the parts that I think will go good together. However, I need help picking out the PSU and need help choosing which monitor, either a 1080p or 1440p, will go best with a RTX 2070. Also, if you guys have any alternatives to the parts that I have chosen, I would like to hear about them. Just know that I am going for a black and red build and am trying to stay with the same manufacturers throughout the build. So, for example, if you show me an alternate ASUS motherboard, if you could provide and ASUS GPU that would be helpful as well. I would like it to be as cheap as possible, but not compromise looks or performance. I love RGB lighting, so that hikes the price up a bit. Anyways, here is the list.

Again, if you could give me information about which PSU would go best with this, and what monitor resolution and refresh rate would go best with this, that would be appreciated. ALSO, if I have missed anything other than the PSU or monitor in this list, let me know! And, if you have any alternate part recommendations, I'd like to hear those as well. This would be my first build and my first parts list, so cut me some slack if I screwed something up.

Thanks,
Josh
 
Your list looks good for the most part. I would go with the Samsung 860 EVO 1TB for basically the same price as that 512GB 860 Pro, but that's just me.

I'd also go 1440p G-Sync if you can. This one below is IPS as well.

I liked your ideas, so I did everything you came up with and changed my list. Added that PSU, monitor and changed the SSD. Thanks for the input!
