I am building my first pc and I would like to know your opinion about the components. Everything except gpu is still waiting for conformation (bought GPU just know and want your opinion about the other components)

Gigabyte B85M D3H
Intel Pentium G3220
Kingston DDR3 PC3-12800 (2x2GB)
Corsair CX500 (bronze)
Gigabyte HD 7870 OC
HGST 320gb sata3 3.0gb/s
And everything nicely wrapped into mATX ACCORD P-25B

Any help about bottlenecks and stuff like that will be much appreciated guys.
Thanks :*

actually i decided to change g3220 to g3420

That Pentium processor might slightly bottleneck your video card, but not by too much and not in all games. I'd invest in an i3.

CPU - There is no reason to go with the G3420 over the G3220. The 200MHz difference will not be noticed. If you want to play around with overclocking, look toward the G3258. The better option would be the i3-4160.
CPU COOLER - Only needed if you want to overclock the G3258. Drop this if you go with the G3220 or other non-overclocking CPU as the stock Intel cooler would be fine.
MB - B85 is OK, but the H97 chipset is the way to go with its newer feature sets.
MEM - Try to go with 8GB up front. 4GB is a bare minimum...
GPU - The HD 7870 is a fine GPU. A little dated, but still very capable.
CASE - Changed to a solid budget oriented case.
PSU - No. XFX, Seasonic, EVGA G2 or filter through the Tier 1 or Tier 2 list. The Corsair C and Builder series are fairly poor units (cheap capacitors). www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

Your memory won't work with that motherboard because its ECC memory, server memory, only works on servers.

About the Power supply, you can get a Corsair/XFX/Antec power supply 550W, that'll be fine for what you need.

Will it work?

Very nice, I too started building my first computer off of used parts, total cost: 200€ and it ran GTA 4 which at the time, was quite the achievement!

Good luck!
