Here is what I am planning on building. (Of course without the Rx480 on the list) This website doesn't let me add the Rx480 to my build because it hasn't come out yet. I am just wondering if it would be compatible with what I have. The Rx480 says DDR5 which I don't really understand, everything on my current build plan says DDR4

The DDR5 is the memory on the RX480 itself. You don't need to worry about it. I don't know if you need the i5-6600? I personally went for the i5-6500 for the pretty much the same build.

The only other thing I would suggest is invest in an SSD. I went with Adata SP550 480GB for about $110.

the 480 is 9.5 inch long. It should fit. let me check your mobo out thou cuss it's micro atx

Just checked it's not does not look like the 480 will interfere with your memory slots. Was there a reason you went micro ATX? or just for price.

It was just for the price. I am on a small budget of around 750.
