Those are the parts i am thinking of buying.

Leave any suggestions or any things i should change

Are you making an income that could go to this PC within the next month or so? Cuz if you can I would HIGHLY recommend getting an SSD now and getting that 1TB hard drive later. That way you have a fast PC that doesn't degrade in speed over time and you don't have to mess around with cloning or reinstalling Windows, which is what would come if you were to get an SSD later.

 

Otherwise it looks pretty solid but you're looking at a budget where I'd consider some used parts over new ones.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

This RAM is from a better brand and is cheaper https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/F7CWBP

I would change the case imo as it will not be of good quality and might be hard to build in.

I would also buy an aftermarket cooler (nothing fancy if no oc) just for the better temps.

I would agree to buy an SSD it is just more expensive, but if you have the money do it.

120GB SSDs can easily be found at that price point. The SP550 120GB can, for example.

I've built a system in the Tesseract. It's actually quite a decent case, especially given its price point. 

 

Also, there's no reason to get an aftermarket cooler for a chip that can't OC that stays really quite cool and quiet with the stock cooler.

Is the motherboard good also?

It'll do. It's mATX in an ATX case but it's not bad.

If you had the extra money I would go for the $80 S340 Elite Case, it will be better quality. Do not confuse it with the Elite version which has tempered glass and is more $$

I would prefer to build in higher quality case especially if you are a beginner but it is of course able to be done in a lower end caseI just said what I would do. He does not need to do those things but it would probably help.

Well yea, but then you are only getting 120gb which is not much for games and os etc.

Which is why, if you're earning money, you buy a storage drive afterwards. I've installed far too many OSes and I can guarentee you that plopping in a hard drive and enabling it in Disk Management in a minute is much smoother than installing Windows on a HDD, installing your games and stuff on it, pictures, whatever, then having to installing Windows again on an SSD, migrate the correct stuff over or clone, etc. 120GB could run, say, Windows 10, Overwatch and some other games, about 20GBs of music and a few movies before becoming full and the storage drive can be plopped in when he needs more storage.

Having built in one it's not hard to cable manage or anything. Easier to cable manage in than my Nanoxia DS4 which costs more than double.

I have never heard of this ram brand. Should i go for it? I am going for it because NCIX is really close to my house.

Cheapest RAM you can get should work fine.
