CPU: Intel Core i5-6500 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
GPU: GTX 1080 (when it is released)
Motherboard: MSI H110M Gaming Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2133 Memory
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Case: Cooler Master N200 MicroATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: Corsair CX 600W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Home OEM (64-bit)

That's all, what I would like to know if this is a good build. Any tips, recommendations, problems? Will bottlenecking occur? Should I include more details? Thanks.

The motherboard quality is fine, but it is a bit Spartan, in that it has few ports and headers so you'll be very limited as to how many things you can plug into it. Make sure it suits your needs and if not, consider an H170 instead with more expansion options. The Corsair power supply is not very good and should be upgraded to a higher quality model. Seasonic, XFX and some higher end EVGA models are very good substitutes. If you can afford an SSD it would be a great addition to your build. Samsung 850 EVO 250GB is the one.

Thanks a lot for the reply. I changed the motherboard to "ASRock H170M Pro4 Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard" and the power supply to "SeaSonic 650W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply", are these good options or should I reconsider?

Both choices are good upgrades and will improve your systems flexibility and reliability.

Everything looks fine. One thing to remember, probably not an issue at all but keep in mind the max length video card the N200 can accommodate is 13.98 inches (which is huge). I only mention it since I have no idea what length the new cards will be. It looks like you have plenty of room just keep it in mind when selecting the video card to be sure.
