Is My Build Legit?

Code:

Hello,

This is my first custom pc build so please go easy on me. I'll just throw the list out here with my main questions being:

1: will all parts connect when it comes to either physical aspects like cables and space and on the other hand soft- and hardware compabilities?

2: Will certain parts bottleneck eachother?

3: Is there any way in which i can make it cheaper, or bettter for a low (or the same) cost?

So here for the build:

Case: Sharkoon REX3 Value_54,20
CPU: Intel Core i5-6500_223
Motherboard: Asrock B150M-HDS_64
Ram: G.Skill 8GB DDR4 (2x 4GB)_65
Graphics Card: msi GeForce GTX 1060 6gb DDR5_346/amd 480 (saphire nitro) 8gb
PSU: Cooler Master B Series ver.2 - 500W_49,90
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 - 1TB_55,80
SSD: Sandisk SSD Plus 120GB_57,40
OS: dunno, probably w10

I live in Holland and will be ordering all the parts for a total of 916 euro's (it's a lot, which is why i want to be sure not a single euro is wasted

). I will be ordering all parts at the same site with free shipping. If you need any extra information please contact me.

UPDATE (jan 25th 00:50)

Allright so first of all thx for all the help you guys offer, im honestly surprised by how quick my mailbox got filled with replies. Also; sorry for the pirating thing, im very naīve when it comes to that and u guys are right. Won't mention it ever again here, thx for the heads-up.

So: next time i have time i will look into:

1: 1060 or 480
2: a better psu
3: recommended component switches i was given

Feel free to provide further information,

Looks decent enough. Feel bad for you guys and the high prices you pay for electronics.
That cooler master PSU is pretty garbage

You really don't want to skimp on the PSU, a lot of difficult to diagnose problems can come up.

Should give decent performance for newer games.

An RX 480 would provide very similar performance and could save you a bit of cash.

I hate to be the one telling you,but the moment you ask about piracy is when the thread will be locked.Go get a proper copy,many problems with pirated anyway.

Well, I don't believe he asked specifically about that and was just making a tongue-in-cheek comment regarding the cost.

Mods will lock it or they won't. We can still provide helpful advice in the mean time.

It looks pretty decent, I would change out the case with something better. Switch the motherboard with an H170 and upgrade the RAM to 16GB. That shouldn't add much to the overall cost. Also switch out the SSD with a Crucial MX300 or Samsung 850 Evo.

And you should definitely pay money for a real OS license. If you pirate Windows, you're gonna have a bad time. We don't endorse pirating here under any circumstances.
