I am on a budget, not really looking to spend more then 350 USD but these are the parts I am planning to buy. Would they all work together? Also this PC will be mostly for gaming.

MSI Intel H81 LGA 1150 DDR3 http://
EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 http://
Intel G3258 http://
4GB DDR3 PC3-10600 http://
EVGA 430 W1 http://
Western Digital Caviar Blue http://
Rosewill Micro ATX Mini Tower Computer Case http://

EDIT: and some kind of pci wifi card because I will be on wireless connection

Ok, for a budget Intel build, most things look good. However, 4GB is just too low, you need 8GB if you want to play anything modern.

As for a Wi-Fi card, don't bother with the cheap ones, from my experience they have very poor range. You would be better off with a cheap USB Wi-Fi adaptor on a USB cable that you can hide out of sight.

So from what you're saying is that I should buy another stick of RAM and a USB wi-fi adapter?

EDIT: Could you provide any links 8GB ram stick that would work with my build?

Yes, more RAM and I've always found that a USB Wi-Fi adaptor is far better than a card. A couple of years ago I got this adaptor http:// it works amazingly well, but you can get whatever you like the look of, maybe a newer 300Mb/s one.

As for RAM, it's hard to beat the price of that 4GB you found, just add another, or look here http:// the 1600MHz will also work, they'll just run at 1333 on your build.
