Hey what's up guys it's Scarce here (Not Scarce just Cheeki Breeki) and I have some questions regarding my future build to see if it's compatible and will run the games I would be playing on it. 

Any help would be extremely appreciated. This is my first PC build and my budget is $1250.00. The games I would be playing are War Thunder, CS:GO, TESV: Skyrim, STALKER series, and Heroes and Generals. I will be running Windows 10 and plan to do stream on Twitch streaming as well. My screenshot and link to build on PC part picker (https://pcpartpicker.com) claims that it's all compatible but I'm not sure it's correct. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/fPPDQV

 

Here's the list of parts:

  1. CPU: Intel Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117561)

Do you really want a 570x? Hardware Canucks called this case a joke and plus a case that has TG on all sides would get very dusty very quickly. I'd look into something like the EVOLV ATX or the P400s Tempered Glass edition when it releases. A better PSU also, maybe the 650w EVGA GQ or if you need to be even more on a budget a CX550m

What exactly does an SSD do? Plus they're expensive, even so which one should I get?

if i load windows lets say on  Hardrive it would take a minute to load on a SSD it will take half that or less to load whatever you put on a SSD it will load alot faster

i currently have  Crucial MX300 275GB 2.5" Solid State Drive and its great
