Processor :Intel i3 6100 3.7Ghz LGA 1151
Mobo :ASRock H110M-GL/D3 DDR3 Intel Socket 1151
RAM :Apacer 8Gb PC 12800 (4Gb x 2) Black Panther DDR3
HDD :Seagate SATA III 1 TB 7200RPM 3.5 Inch
VGA :Inno 3D GTX 960 4Gb 128Bit DDR5 OC
PSU :ENERMAX Max Pro 80+ 600W - EMP600AGT

I'm not sure of the motherboard and the psu

Get a different power supply, stick to tier 1 or 2

And get two 4gb sticks of ram so more can be added in future

So, the motherboard will do just fine with the other component?

Get DDR4 memory and DDR4 motherboard with skylake. Invest in a better PSU. Personally Id get the corsair 450W psu, don't care what people say, for low end systems it does a great job. DDR4 memory costs the same as DDR3 and a DDR4 motherboard costs $10 more. Personally I got the Asrock H110M HDV since it has HDMI, DVI, VGA for the onboard graphics.

So, the Asrock h110m hdv is a ddr4 motherboard?

How About This??

O didn't see you said ddr3. Yes you get ddr4 with skylake processors
Swap to ddr4 motherboard

Now it's better, PSU is still unknown to me however, also you donr need 2400mhz memory, 2133mhz is enough.

Power supply is still low quality, what your budget for a power supply? We can find you a better one

With that CPU and GPU, you can game at 1080p on upper low/medium settings @ 60fps assuming future games dont ban dual core CPU's. A 600w PSU would be ideal for future upgrades tho, assuming you are sticking with one GPU.
