Hey guys,
I'm new to pc building. I want to build a pc for gaming at 1080p. These are the parts I'm considering buying

psu - Corsair CS Series 650W Modular 80 PLUS Gold
motherboard - Gigabyte H270M-DS3H
cpu - Intel Core i5-7600
graphics card - Gigabyte GeForce GTX1060 6GB G1 Gaming
ram - Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4-2133MHz (2x8GB)
hdd - Western Digital Blue 1TB
case - Deepcool Dukase V2
monitor - AOC G2260VWQ6 (1080p,75hz)

Some of the games I'm interested in are: Crysis 3, Titanfall 2, Far Cry Primal, Doom, GTA V Battlefield 1, Rise of the tomb raider, Just Cause 3, Need for speed 2015, sc:go, MMOs (tera,neverwinter) and MOBAs (LoL,Dota2)
At what fps will these games run at 1080p?

Are there any incompatibilities or 'bottlenecks' in this build? Also if I don't get an ssd will I get decreased performance in games apart from longer loading screens?

Any help/advice is appreciated.

I like the OP's build apart from the low end PSU, its not terrible but its still low end and you should be able to find better quality for similar price or very little more. It's no way good enough for overclocking.

As for a Z97 & DDR3 build, I wouldn't as investing in end of life parts makes reusing parts in the future when you want to upgrade impossible.

Between the 480 & 1060 6gb there is little between them but personally I feel Nvidia have better driver support but many will disagree with me Im sure.

You could save more money if you get a B250 / B250M motherboard. From the looks of your parts, you won't be needing much of the features in the H270 / H270M boards (such as more M.2 sockets and USB headers/ports).

I'd replace that PSU with a better-quality, highly reliable, better warranty and ample wattage unit. Look into the Seasonic G-550, EVGA SuperNOVA G3 550W, EVGA SuperNOVA G2 550W, or Seasonic M12II-520 EVO. These are all more than enough to power your entire rig.

Highly recommended, once you got some savings from the above adjustments, to squeeze in an SSD in there for faster loading times/boot times. A ~250GB is ideal (or if budget is really tight, a ~120GB). Use the SSD as your OS drive, programs, and applications as well as some frequently-used open-world games (the higher capacity, the more games you can install here). Pair the SSD with that WD 1TB Blue for general storage and seldom-used games.

best config for you trust me-
Cpu-i7 4770k
Motherboard-Asus z97
ram-Kingston hyperx fury 8x2=16gb(you can overclock them to 2400mhz with 1.65v)
hdd=Seagate sshd (they are hybrid means you will get speed like ssd and capacity like hdd)
graphics card=Sapphire rx 470 4gb or 480(if your budget is a little high)
psu is good and case is also good if I was you I would also buy a water cooler for higher overclock.
