PLEASE use PCPartPicker. It may not detect every compatibility issue, but it's better than not using it. Also, most of your parts are ridiculously unspecific. Also, get a better PSU.

Wow.. too good for a first timer.
8GB ram is enough.
Psu could be better u could buy either Evga g2 550w or antec edge 550w.
Though i prefer evga g2 myself.
the only reason i use antec edge is that i cant find evga psu around here.

 

first tell us your budget and i can recommend u some cases.
Memory is doesnt matter.

What do you mean by too good for a first timer? I'm actually building my PC next week, already ordered the parts (first time... but I've done WAYYYY too much research).

I built my first PC last August. It took me several hours because I got a really weird case with poor instructions: the Deepcool Steam Castle. It comes with four LEDs you have to plug into a circuit board, the circuit board plugs into the PSU using the SATA cable. 

 

If it weren't for the weird case, I would have wasted less time because the motherboard (MSI Bazooka) made it super easy. Everything is labeled on the board and the instructions are super duper.
