Hey Tom's Hardware Community! I'm new here and I just want some feedback on the build I am buying in the near future.
I researched for about a month, and this is what I am planning on purchasing. They are all currently on sale at stores I can access. Is there anything wrong or non-compatible with my build? I am pretty sure this is the best performance I can get for my budget in Canada. Thoughts and opinions are welcome!

I also plan on upgrading my mouse+keyboard and found this steal of a deal from Cooler Master. For $20, a good-looking and generic keyboard and mouse from a trusted brand like Cooler Master seems like a good deal.
