Hello, I just ordered my first ever Streaming/Youtube/Gaming PC, and I need some approval from experts to be sure I did the right thing.

CPU: Intel Core i7 7700K
Cooler: Be Quiet! Shadow Rock Slim
GPU: Asus ROG Strix GTX 1060 OC 6G Gaming
Mobo: Asus ROG Strix Z270F Gaming
PSU: Corsair CX550M
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB @2666Mhz
HDD: Western Digital Blue 1TB
SSD: Kingston SSDNow UV400 120GB
Case: NZXT S340 Elite White
Extra: - Corsair AF120 LED Double Pack
- 6+2 pin PCIe, 8 pin CPU & 24 pin Extension Cables Blue

I hope it's all good since I already ordered it ;)

Looks good, all compatible parts and good quality. If I really wanted to nitpick I would of suggested going with a cheaper Z270 motherboard/case and putting the savings for a 2x8gb set for RAM and possibly a bigger SSD.
It boggles me how so many people buy parts and THEN ask for suggestions.

Everything looks decent except the Kingston SSD drive, it is not that good, only marginally better then a mechanical drive.
The "least crappy" budget drive utilizing Toshiba TLC is the PNY CS1311. Unfortunatly the new generation budget drives took a step back vs the last gen drives like the SanDisk Ultra

Also, if the 2666 was near same price as the other ram then totally fine, but on intel systems it is not really cost effective to pay 20-30% more for higher frequency ram then the stock 2400mhz.
