The motherboard looks bare bones, I cannot find much info on the PSU (maybe 500 W), and the case has no fan in this configuration (although it should have mounting points due to other configurations, but I don't believe the motherboard will have available fan headers). So essentially it will be a CPU/GPU fan only out of the box. Adding more fans isn't impossible, just annoying, and you won't have fine-grain control.
So if you plan on buying this as a premade and keeping it largely unaltered it is likely a solid enough purchase. If, however, you plan to immediately upgrade it then you may wind up needing to replace more than you anticipate.
Price breakdown parts:
- 1660 Ti: $300 (multiple vendors).
- 3600X: $200~ new, $100~ used (limited vendors YMMV).
- 256 GB SSD: $30
- Win10 Home Hardware Locked: $30
- 8 GB RAM: $30
- PSU: $30
- Case/Motherboard/Misc: ???
According to my back-of-napkin maths you CANNOT build this system for $650. You can get a CPU/GPU/storage/RAM and a PSU for near $600, but still need a case, motherboard, and Windows license. If you got a used 3600X that would get you closer but you're likely looking at around the $700~ mark, more if you got a brand name PSU and SSD (recommended).
Should you buy this? As I said above, if you plan on keeping it mostly unmolested then I'd argue yes, but for upgrade/parts I'd likely pass and spend the $700+, get a better PSU/motherboard/case.

You're going to want/need to either replace that 256 GB hard drive or get a second drive for additional storage. If this weren't a "gaming PC" you could get away with 256 GB, but that's maybe 2-3 AAA modern games.
Is there some known problem with B450 boards and Ryzen 9's ?
This is an Asus system so they'd use an Asus motherboard and have a basic level of quality from the Asus brand. Sure its going to be lower end design but I wouldn't expect it to be garbage.

Had one 92mm exhaust fan out the back.
I added another 92mm and a 120mm on the front, along with a be quiet pure rock slim 2 CPU cooler. No temp issues whatsoever.
Though I did end up swapping cases to a cooler master h500 because that Asus case is UGLY AS HELL.
