I built my PC and now I'm having some issue so I wanted to confirm something before upgrading my Pc.
Specs:
Ryzen 5 3500
GIGABYTE RTX 2060 Super
Asus Prime B450M
Corsair Vengeance C16 8GB 3200MHz
Cooler Master 600W +80 Bronze SMPS.

Is there any chances of bottleneck in this rig?

8GB is low for gaming, and to a certain extent single-channel.
That is the obvious standout to me, though a CPU upgrade later could offer some benefit too.

If it's only 1x8 there's the bottleneck. Ryzen needs Dual Chanel. And 8GB is low for most modern games.

Ryzen 5 3500 runs 6 cores without SMT (6 threads). It's like a Ryzen 5 3400G for those that do not know about the model (3400G has 4 cores with SMT, 8 threads). It's sufficient for the RTX 2060S, especially if you're running 1440p. Might be a tiny bottleneck on 1080p though, but nothing serious.

Only 8gb total or 2 x8gb sticks? If one, that would be my concern
