I´m going to be building my first PC in the upcoming month and i have compiled a list of parts that i am thinking of buying. If someone here could take a look at the list and see if everything is compatible and maybe give tips on how to build this thing or some improvements or criticism. I really just want some feedback on this. Also this is going to be mostly a gaming PC as well as just a normal capable PC

Please use Pc Part Picker, it is very easy and simple to use and it will tell you any compatibility issues there might be.

Everything looks good except the PSU and ram. I would dual channel ram(2 sticks of 4gb would be the equivalent of what you are planning to get). That PSU is pretty bad. There are better 80+ bronze PSUs but I would say to get a 80+ gold PSU. EVGA's G2/GS/GQ series is pretty good. Corsair and Cooler Master have some good ones as well. Jonnyguru does some good reviews on PSUs.
