Coller: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (120mm) * have from old PC will replace IF NEED
PSU: EVGA 600W Bronze PC Power Supply* have from old PC will replace IF NEED
Case: Zalman Z3 Plus ATX/M-ATX Tower Case* have from old PC but i think it`s not good enought for the new build was thinking to buy
NZXT CA-S340MB-GR Source 340 Midi Tower Case (saw people used this case for this GPU)
I have monitor, keyboard, mouse, CD/DVD from my old pc.
Is it a decent build and is there any parts i must replace, a bit scared for the PSU and the Cooler but don`t wonna spent more money unless i have to really. Most of the parts still are on the way so i can cancel and get new one IF NEED
Any advice is really welcomed, because i`m not a specialist at all, thanks for the help!

Cancel the RAM, CPU cooler and PSU, I can get you a better power supply, white LED RAM, and a better value high performance cooler which also has no RAM height interference.

I agree with that PSU. However I am not worried enough to recommend a change. Your card says System Requirements
Recommended Power Supply: 500W Power Consumption: 270W. That means you have more than enough headroom. If you want you can upgrade to the 650W G2 from EVGA.

Games are just getting bigger with some titles exceeding 50GB. As such 250GB drive is relatively small.https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Y3yxFT/intel-internal-hard-drive-ssdsc2kw480h6x1 will offer you more room for games.

It's a 1080 amp extreme, with a regular 1080 i'd recommend at least a 500w PSU, but given its the Amp extreme which is heavily OC focused, has two 8 pins and draws heaps of power, the 600B will be very unstable and will run poorly.
Even with a regular 1080 I wouldn't run a 600B, they're very low quality and can be replaced with an S12II 620w for only $49.
@OP, budget in local currency and retailers.

Just give me a number, everyone has a budget otherwise i'd be giving you 256GB of high frequency RAM, a 6950X and two 1080tis. ;)
I'll sort you out in all aspects as soon as I have a budget to work with, don't worry.
Your current case is technically still fine, but i'd go with something like the S340 as an upgrade which I see you've already mentioned.
Actually, don't bother taking anything out of your old PC, keep that as a whole and either reuse it or sell it online, works out better that way, and you get to start fresh.

ok so i already ordered most of the parts and i`ll give you the prices now, as i said i can cancel some of them but i though the prices are good for them :
CPU: i7 7700k 4.2ghz £310
GPU: Zotac GeForce GTX 1080 AMP Extreme £425
MB: ASROCK Z270 PRO4 S1151 ATX Intel DDR4 Elegant Motherboard MB: £105
RAM: Corsair CMK16GX4M2B3000C15R Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4 3000 MHz £109
So this is what i ordered already, i will transfer atleast the SSD on the new PC bought it 2 weeks ago so if i`m to build anterely new pc i still need Case, HDD, PSU and Cooler i think as i said can`t give you budget number but can`t afford the really expenxive parts

Okay, the 1080 Amp Extreme was a good buy, that sale's been great for weeks now. :)
Mobo was also good, as well as RAM.
You've made some good purchases.
What SSD do you currently have?
What do you mean you can't give me a budget?
Just say how much you have left to spend or are comfortable spending, there are heaps of really expensive parts, but idk what your perception of expensive is! :)
