Ordered without checking here first.

Welcome to the forum jeremiah!

Not sure how much you are prepared to upgrade...I can suggest a few ideas to consider...

PSU...While the DS 600w PSU is enough power for the RTX 2070 Super, it is not modular cabled and only carries the 1 yr DS Parts Warranty.   A better choice (+$86) would be the Corsair RM850X 850W all modular Gold Efficiency PSU with a 5 yr Corsair warranty.   Would make changes easy, you only use cables build needs, and it would power stronger future GPU’s.

CPU...For an excellent value (+$129) the faster clocked excellent I7-9700K can be Overclocked to Stage 1 for Free or Stage 2 for only +$99.   The I7-9700F can’t be Overclocked and runs .2 gHz slower but is still a good fast processor.

RAM...For (+$17) I suggest you upgrade to Corsair Vengeance RGB 16 GB RAM for the lifetime warranty...DS Ram is only warranties for a year.

Drive1.....Important! You should consider upgrading from the DS SATA III SSD to a faster Samsung Evo 970 Pro M.2 NVME SSD for (+$66).    M.2 NVME SSD go 5X faster than normal SATA III speed SSD as they use the PCIE video bus on the motherboard.   Your board will have two ports for M.2 NVME SSD drives.

Cooler...The DS AIO Stage 1 single fan cooler only has a 1 yr parts warranty...Consider the stronger Corsair H100i 240mm Stage 2 dual fan AIO cooler (+$60) for better cooling performance and a longer 5 yr warranty.

Don’t know what resolution monitor you will be driving, but VR isn’t too demanding to get high frames on the 2 small viewer headset screens.   The RTX 2070 Super should work fine for that.

If you decide to change anything, DS is easy to work with...Just act as soon as possible to minimize any delays.   

Sales rep on the phone was pleasant and didn't seem irritated at all about the changes which he put in by hand, charged the card, and sent the configuration. Didn't do any overclocking as that is a bit advanced for me at this point. I'm off to the races! Thanks!

Originally posted by HockeyBuck The Free Stage 1 Overclock should really be requested, and it involves no worries for you at all.

Thanks! That is actually something I might want to learn about on my own. This is my first desktop in many years, the last two being laptops, and I am looking forward to also... y'know... playing around with it.

You might want to consider switching from the factory fans to the Corsair LL or ML fans. I have the ML fans in my Lumos case and they are essentially silent, plus they have RGB lighting, which looks really nice in that beautiful Lumos glass case.

Intel itself is providing software options for DIY overclocking if you wish. They are called Intel Tuning Utility and Intel Performance Maximizer. I have not used this software, but it's free. One may believe Intel is going to help you with a safe overclock if you still want to tinker on your own.

Actually, "overclocking" gives me anxiety! lol!

The newest and best of the Intel series don't need to be overclocked for gaming. They are already that fast. But it's true that Intel has dialed back some of the speed on some to provide for some very safe tinkering. I have no overclock on my 8700K, but my DS build before that was overclocked from 2.75 GHz to 3.81 (what, 38%?!!) and went strong on very good air cooling until I retired it after 8 years. And I run my rigs 24/7! The overclocks are not nearly that extreme anymore, but they don't need to be. The free level one DS overclock is perfectly safe, and will not void the warranty on the chip. The all-in-one water cooler will keep it very cool. Just sayin'.
