No problem man. If you are building this for gaming, I think you will be very happy with the Coffee Lake i3. If you plan on overclocking, you might go with the 8350k instead of the 8100, but either way you wont find much better for that price point.

Won't go with any overclocking, a Coffee Lake is fine, was originally gonna go with a pentium or a Sky Lake i3, but I guess a Coffee Lake goes for about the same price.

Would this be a good final build? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/svPgkT

It is a decent build, If it were me I would spend a little extra and get a 1060, you could probably find a used one pretty cheap if youre open to that. You could also save 5 bucks by getting the corsair cx550 if you wanted to.

Yeah, I'll just get the 770, only use it for basic gaming like CS and League anyway.
