I am going to be building a pc for the first time, and i don't know if these are good parts. I know i will need an AM4 adapter for my cooler, but that's basically all the problems its telling me on the website. Are there any i would have to worry about? and would this be a good rig to play a game like GTA V on?

Don't worry about the aftermarket cooler, the one that comes with the ryzen processors is actually fairly decent.

on the website, it says the cpu does not come with a cooler. 

Oop right the X's dont come with. 

 

Just get a 1600. X isnt worth the extra money.

What country are you buying from? Just looking at the build with US prices, it's not sensible at all, so I'm assuming it's from somewhere else? I'll just give general information then. 

Don't get the 1600X. The 1600 is the same thing, but comes with a decent cooler and costs less. Just overclock it, and you have the same thing. 

Drop the C7. 

Change the motherboard to one that's less crap. The Pro4 or Prime Plus are fine. 

Since you're getting a really low end SSD, don't bother paying for the brand. Just get the cheapest one. 

For the HDD, just get the cheapest 1TB 7200 RPM one with at least 64MB cache. 

The S340 has poor airflow. Consider something like the G21 or H500. 

The PSU is way overkill for wattage, but it's really crap. Depending on what's available and the prices, get the CX450/M, Pure Power 10 400W or Vengeance (any wattage). Or if it doesn't cost much more, the Formula Gold 450W. 

You can get a Windows key from Reddit or Kinguin for ~$25. 

If at all possible, don't use wi-fi. Find a way to use ethernet, or use one of the powerline/Homeplug kits.
