Hello, I'm building my very first "gamer" PC.

However I know very little about PCI express slots, SATA entrances, DDR version, necessary power supply and this kind of stuff.

So, I would like to know if the componets I chose will work fine together or if they have some type of incompability issue.

Processor: Intel i5 6500 3.2Ghz
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H170-Gaming 3
Graphic Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 960
RAM Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury 4GB DDR3 (2x)
Power Supply: Corsair CX-600W
HD: Seagate 1TB Sata3,5
Case: Corsair Carbide Spec-03

Thanks,

Pedro

As mentioned above, you need ddr4, really any set will do fine. I would buy a single kit of 2x4GB instead of buying two individual 4GB sticks.
If you're buying new, consider rx480 over the 960. Or if it fits in your budget, maybe even the gtx 1060.
I would also get a PSU from tier 1 or 2 in the PSU Tier List if you can afford it. In my experience the EVGA and Seasonic units tend to be the cheapest in those tiers. the S12II 520W is the same price as the cx600. if you want to go cheaper, you can step down a tier into tier 3 (not ideal but stable) and get an EVGA 600B

Other than that, it looks pretty good.
