There's been a huge upswing in disinformation in these threads, and in the community in general. At the end of the day, YOU are the one who loses if you take bad advice.
If you see any other build advice or part list threads, direct them here with >>>/g/pcbg and report.
7700 or Ryzen 1600?
Is RX500 worth waiting for or will they be higher-clocked rehashes?

Of what? And next time just post the pc parts picker list.
If you're in the USA try to bump up your PSU to Gold 80+ otherwise it looks fine. Consider getting an SSD for the OS + critical programs. In fact I highly recommend you do that.
Some names are Crucial MX300 and Samsung 850 Evo

Looks solid to me. Only real thing I would consider is spending a few more $ and grabbing a gold rated PSU.
