I saw a thread on reddit and thought these parts fit everything I needed in a computer. I want to know are they compatible and if they aren't suggest some that are please. Also, if there is a part better and less expensive please let me know. I am going to be using it for World of Warcraft (if the expansion looks good), games of that caliber, and basic school stuff. I also don't know how to assemble a computer and don't have time. Is there a website for that?

I'm want everything except the keyboard and monitor.

Changed the GPU to a cheaper and better GTX960, swapped out the corsair cx psu (which is not very good quality) for a better seasonic one, and changed the motherboard, case, and RAM.

If you do not have the time to assemble the computer yourself, then you can have one built for you by custom pc builders. Some examples:

CyberpowerPC: https://www.cyberpowerpc.com/
iBuyPower: http://www.ibuypower.com/
OriginPC: https://www.originpc.com/

Basically you go on their site, pick your parts, and they will build and ship the PC to you (usually within a few weeks). However they will charge you a premium for it (nothing's free), so it will be more expensive than buying the parts and building it yourself.

Thank you so much, but do all of these parts work together, including the case?

Yes, they will all work. I liked your original choice of the R9 280 better than the revised GTX 960 card better personally because of the 1GB extra RAM in the 280, which is good for newer games.

For WoW and games like that at 1080p, the extra 2 GB is not going to matter. But if you are willing to spend $15 more, you can get the 4GB version of the 960.
