this is the build:
Intel i7-7700k LGA 1151
Cooler Master - Seidon 240V Liquid AIO LGA 1151 240mm
Gigabyte GA-Z270X ultra gaming ATX LGA 1151 288 pin 
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16(2x8) 2666 mhz 288 pin 
Seagate - Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM 
Gigabyte GTX 1060 9GBPS Aorus edition   H=38 L=280 W=111 mm   https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N1060AORUS-6GD-rev-10#sp

Thermaltake View 31 TG because its a nice case + its cheap enough for me    http://www.thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00003012

 

I know that the CPU and mbd are compatable and so is the cooler because its a socket lga 1151

I was thinking of putting the cooler on the top and myb buying 1 more fan for the front side.

 

 

So i am still new to pc-ing i already have a build at pcpartpicker.com( https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9ggfLD ) but it says 

  • The Thermaltake - View 31 TG ATX Mid Tower Case supports video cards up to 420mm long, but video cards over 278mm may block drive bays. Since the Gigabyte - GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6GB Xtreme Gaming Video Card is 280mm long, some drive bays may not be usable.
  • which i dont know what is mean so can you please explain it to me in understandable language or at least try to explain

But i still dont know what is everything that needs to be compatable so i need your help with that  

Bassically idk anything about pc when it comes to compatibility so that why i am writting  this here .

So yeah.

That means the drive bay is in the graphics card's way, so you will need to take it off in order to hold the graphics card. In this case, you're better off getting a shorter 1060 6gb.

Depends on whether the gap between the side panel and drive bay can fit the graphics card. I wouldn't take a risk on that.

Yes. It's short enough and the website lists clearly that the maximum thickness of the graphics card is 50mm in vertical position.
