Yep that should work great as your not overclocking so the stock cooler will work fine, although for how cheap SSDs are, around 89 USD for a 250GB one it would be worth looking at as they make your whole system way faster when Windows and basic programs are installed on it, while your larger games would be on the HDD

This is basically your part list with the Samsung 850 EVO 250GB http://pcpartpicker.com/p/39Zqcf

I would buy a separate power supply as normally case and PSU combos aren't the best quality so maybe go for something like a Corsair CX Corsair CX 600W then choose a new case, and if your budget fits it try to get an SSD even if its only 120GB just for windows then your other drive for games and i assume u dont plan on overclocking your CPU as its a non K chip, finally i would recommend a motherboard like the Gigabyte GA-B85-HD3-A (rev. 1.0) as it has 4 dimm slots instead of 2 as well as having more upgrade options

All that's just reliability, as far as saving money goes, what's your budget and what do u plan on doing on the system just gaming or also editing/rendering

Ohh and will this setup be able to connect with 5ghz internet. And is there a desktop/laptop I can buy that's as good or better for the same price? Sorry I'm really new to PC stuff and I just want to make sure before I got and spend a grand on a PC
