Spoiler

1) skylake is better and the price difference isnt that much, get the i5 6500

2) not a bad psu but try getting the EVGA GS or G2, its better

3) would get wd blue instead of seagate but thats just me

4) would get an r9 390 for better gaming performance

5) would stick with stock cooler if you're on a budget

6) get windows from other cheaper sources if you're comfortable with it

7) use pcpartpicker.com `-`

The  i5 6500 won't fit in my socket..  And the  i5 6500 is cheaper. The website that I am getting my parts from is having a sale on the i5-4590

of course if you want to get skylake you would have to change the motherboard and ram as well ._.

if you're buying this as a package then you can ignore my recommendation to upgrade to skylake since the performance different is negligible, but under cpu intensive task the difference will show, so the i5 6500 will last longer due to it being stronger and have access to ddr4 memory bandwith goodness

i would really go with skylake as @Moonzy explained. psu is fine but 390 would be better. also try to find a cheap windows 7 license and upgrade. maybe you got some old machine which you can put linux on. the money for windows licenses can easily be safed. there are so much cheap devices that come with windows and can use linux too that you dont really need to buy licenses for the desktop.

this is my list in this price range:

you can download the game if possible, i never needed DVD drives since most things can be found online anyway

yeah.. It is a bit too late to download it as I bought it from the store.. And my connection is 10Mbps and my ISP will cut me off after 30GB of continued downloading.. And GTA V is 65GB..

We only have 1 ISP in South Africa and their highest plan is 10Mbps..
