Want to build i5 6600 skylake but im not familiar with the compatibility of the components. Games I will play would be mostly dota2 and csgo


I'm also budget tight to 340usd (cpu + mobo+ ram + sd together)

In a site I visited they built it to something like this. Is this possible? (337usd)
Processor: Intel Core i5-6600 Skylake Processor Socket 1151 3.5Ghz 6m Tray Type
Motherboard: ECS H110M-C3D Motherboard Socket 1151 Pcie Ddr3
Memory (RAM): Kingston Memory 2gb Ddr3-1600

You will lose out on performance from your memory as it is dual channel, using one stick will make it run slower. Get 2 4GB sticks

I found this ECS H110M-C3D but I'm quite not sure how it supports different ram sticks
