You're buying these new? Nah, CPU and motherboard are both old and should go with Ryzen and 8th gen's release. The cooler doesnt outperform the stock one in any way that benefits the user experience either.

 

The rest are just fine.

I would consider going for a i3 8th gen or a Ryzen 2 cpu.

Also I would swap the cooler for aMugen 3 or something :) 

 

Aswell this should safe you some money to invest in a better GPU then the 1050ti.

I would try to go for a 1070TI!!
