A while ago I asked for help building a PC. I wasn't able to get the PC yet (car sucks) until now.

This was the build I had settled on on the forum, but I was wondering if the build is still great or is there a better way to go now? Some parts changed and aren't even for sale anymore. I need to replace the ones that aren't offered anymore but am worried about not picking those that are compatible.

It's just a PC for gaming and not for video editing and all that stuff. I still am looking to spend ~1300 Would you guys suggest a completely different build or what would you guys suggest?
