Greetings!
I have been shopping all month and this is what I have.
Thanks for any help and comments in advance.
I have access to a microcenter and amazonprime.
Everything is still in boxes and unopened, I can return anything listed here.

$786 w/o operating system (Before GPU MIR)
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/PPTLsk
(Note that I also have a $20 MIR on the GPU bringing that down to $339.99 AR.)
Last purchase will be a windows key and/or any alternative suggestions.

I am aware of the following possible upgrades:
-
*1TB m.2 nvme storage below $100.
-
(Have not seen any reliable PSU's on sale this year, when comparing to last years insanely low prices. EVGA G3 650W for example was $50 (this year $104 and no sale) ect...)
*still looking for a better PSU (More reliable, Gold maybe? I was told not to go cheap on PSU or is the 700w bronze fine?)
The only gold PSU sale that I found so far this month w/o MIR is a gold 1000w GQ and even on sale is pricey found here
https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Supernova-Modular-Warranty-220-G3-0850-X1/dp/B017ICWP82/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=evga+power+supply&qid=1575109335&s=electronics&sr=1-1&th=1
I don't feel is necessary..but its the biggest sale price of all PSU's this year (waiting for CyberMonday 12/2/2019, if nothing else I may pull trigger on this)

*Possible RAM conflict (friend says don't know until you try to power on and observe operating speeds) MOBO says max RAM is 2933, but can be OC'd to 3200.
Memory Type DDR4-2133 - DDR4-2400 - DDR4-2667 - DDR4-2933
Memory Speeds Supported - DDR4 3200 O.C., 2933, 2667, 2400, 2133
It is my understanding that if I want 3600 RAM, my mobo does not support that speeds, which I'll have to buy a new MOBO.
Correct me if im wrong, I got the 3200 RAM that will be OC'd to run at that speed. A 2933 stick cannot run at 3200 right? The stick needs to be the rated speed that is desired, is my understanding.

PRIMARY USE: IPS VIEWING for WoW Gaming
World of warcraft at max settings with this $150 monitor
https://www.microcenter.com/product/612848/Nitro_VG240Y_Pbiip_238%22_Full_HD_144Hz_HDMI_DP_FreeSync_LED_Monitor
144hz
IPS
1080p
freesync

Would like a 1440p 144hz IPS panel but not willing to pay more than $250 for a monitor.

Thanks for any feedback!

No one likes a wall of text

forgot to post zip code

Microcenter near me is 92780
Shipping is 90710
Los Angeles, CA

Wall of text is all my research on this so far, as a new builder and hunting for deals.

UPDATE:

No windows key needed, I will be learning how to use Linux so I dont have to flush another $100 down the drain.

windows is like 3$ on ebay for a license key.
