Hello guys I'm a little new with building a PC so I'm just wandering if this build would run into any problems like bottlenecking and such. Btw please follow this post. Btw i have questions about black Friday sales. What percentage will each of the pc parts prices drop Like the Mother board, cpu, and etc. and is the black Friday sale better than cyber Monday sale for Pc parts shopping? Can anyone give me tips on how to shop on black friday sales because that is when I'm planning on buying gaming pc parts. Im sorry that my message is all over that plane because I'm typing this 4:00 Am LOL

Please for the love of God, do not get the Devastator keyboard. You're paying close to 2K for your computer and you're downgrading your experience insanely by buying it. Buy a good keyboard, you can afford it.

 

Other people can help you with what I consider to be not the best bang-for-buck build, but I really wanted to point you away from that keyboard.

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

I actually agree with what's been said. Config is solid and will provide good performance. Keyboard is a weird choice and there's definetly better ones out there. 
Best thing with them would be (if you can) go to a store and see them "en naturel". Stores around here usually have some on display.

 

Same goes for mouse.

 

You can, if you want to save some money, step one down to ryzen 5 1600 and a b350 if you "only" game (better bang for buck). If you also render videos (say, for youtube) or stream to twitch (being a streamer, not watching), stick with the r7 1700.

Get a good keyboard, mouse and monitor. These are the parts you are going to interact with every day all the time. I found a keyboard that I love and have moved it from machine to machine for the last 15 years - it's a very old Logitech that is no longer made and I can't find even on ebay anymore so when it finally dies I will be in trouble. I just changed to a Logitech G502  mouse after my old mouse died last spring and am happy with the change. But really the $25 keyboards are unlikely to either be comfortable to use or able to survive more than a year or so at the most.

 

Other than that it looks like a great system - very similar to what I would upgrade my current rig to if I had the budget right now.

The Nzxt RGB fans require a HUE+ controller for full control of the LED. Consider instead getting Aura Sync compatible RGB fans so that they can be controlled by the motherboard. http://www.coolermaster.com/cooling/case-fan/masterfan-pro-120-af-rgb/ is one example. https://www.asus.com/campaign/aura/us/Sync.html may also prove interesting.

 

I believe that http://phanteks.com/PH-CB_RGB4P.html will allow motherboard control of the case lighting.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
