I'm building my first PC and I have a build and would just like to know if it will all work together and if there is any improvements I can make without changing the price to much my Budget is £520 but I'll spend up to £550 if it increases performance

The PC is for gaming and I'll be playing CSGO minecraft H1Z1 at 1080p
