Here is a list i have made for a entry level vr/gaming pc, it will be my first build! But i am not sure how well the parts will work together pls give me your thoughts on this

[Hi P]

Looks good to me, but I wonder what other people think, I'm also new to this!

 

If you have money left, consider a small SSD for the OS and Programs

Looks meh.  GPU is paramount in VR, and you have that covered decently.  However, 8gb of system ram is not ideal.  Loading stutters kill the VR experience.  It needs a SSD and another 8gb of RAM.

What speed ram would you recommend 

For vr?

AFAIK ram speed would only increase your FPS slightly, since your base is 2400 I would suggest sticking to it, play some games and if you aren't happy with the FPS try to O.C it (but you won't see much of a difference so I wouldn't suggest it)

get a cheap 240gb ssd since you already have a HDD, get a corsair CX instead of that PSU, much better quality.
