I would recommend this RAM instead

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/DHPzK8/team-vulcan-16gb-2-x-8gb-ddr4-3000-memory-tlgd416g3000hc16cdc01

 

For GPU an rx 570 is a LOT cheaper and just as good, or an rx 580 8gb is actually a little cheaper so I would get one of those instead.

 

As for PSU, I would suggest this CXM grey sticker instead

I would also probably get this newer mobo

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

I'd get a better PSU. If you got the CX550M, the RX580, you might have enough to get a 1TB 860 EVO. They're going on sale for $129 on Black Friday. There are also several other 1TB options that are cheap. You'll run out of space on a 500GB drive awfully fast.
