I have a few questions for my first build

I'm planning to build my first gaming PC, and I'd like to know the recommended order to buy the parts, as I won't be able to buy all of them at once.

 

I have no particular budget, but I do want to be able to buy at least one part (minus peripherals) every paycheck or so.

 

I already have a build planned out after some research (https://pcpartpicker.com/list/y6gpPs).

 

With all that said, some information to help you help me (if you can of course)

  • I'm in the the US, and as I said before I have no set budget.
  • The system is going to be used for gaming. A few games I'm going to play are Kritika Online, Blade and Soul, Minecraft, and Overwatch, but my gaming will not be limited.
  • I plan on buying one monitor for now (the one in the parts list)
  • I do need to buy a keyboard, any better recommendations than the one I put in my list is welcome.
  • I plan on using Windows 10 for my OS

Thanks!

Definitely swap out the PSU.

I dropped the RAM down to 16GB and you can always add more later.

Added an SSD as well
