It looks great to me and good pricing too. personally i dont like those logitech headsets as i went through 3 of them (steel series is nice) and the case isnt my style but it looks good everywhere else to me. Also most cases come with fans so you probably dont need them but i am too lazy to check.

The i7 8700 is a better CPU to buy if you aren't going ryzen

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

There's a Vega 56 reference on sale for $350 right now and it comes with 3 games

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

The Cooler Master MasterAir G100M RGB is a terrible cooler, and I'd get a better PSU. The build recommended by @Herman Mcpootis makes far more sense.

I have that exact same case, and yes, it does come with fans included. One 120MM front intake fan and one 120MM exhaust fan. They do an ample job of keeping my components cool listed in my sig. Overall it's a decent case for the price, has plenty of room for future upgrades down the line if you so desire. I picked it out just because I like the simplistic look of it, I'm not really into the whole "gamer" look of some cases, this one was cheap and fit the bill nicely. Rest of the build looks fine as well but just wanted to let you know you don't need any extra fans if you were concerned over whether or not this particular case came with them, it does. But, I would try to stretch in 16 gigs of total ram. 8 Gigs can become quite limiting nowadays with multiple web browsers open, plus any background programs, etc. 16 really does just give you that leisure of being able to have a lot more open in the background whilst you're gaming.

Also for case and motherboard choices case its just my preference it does not come with fans though it has 9 fan mounting places, motherboard because it is future proofed with SLI and supports latest gen i9

u might be the first person i've seen with a 9600k, just get the 8700/k like others have said, mx4 is better than AS5 in most cases. 1 ddr2666 stick is gonna feel slow in some apps.

get a m2 nvme drive instead

SLI is only suppported by a few games, and with your budget and PSU you'd be better off getting one single GPU anyways. a good B360 or H370 motherboard will support a 9900k just fine after a BIOS update.
