Right now, my dad and I are Building a gaming PC with a budget of about $865. We need some advice/help on the PC, and direct questions are below. Right now we have:

Intel BX80677I57500 7th Gen Core Desktop Processors and GIGABYTE GA-Gaming B8 LGA1151 Intel ATX 2-Way Crossfire DDR4 USB 3.1 USB Type-C RGB Fusion M.2 Smart Fan 5 Motherboard Bundle - $320

EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti SSC GAMING ACX 3.0 (4GB) - $160

BitFenix Mid Tower Cases BFX-NOV-100-WWWKK-RP - $60

SanDisk SSD PLUS 120GB Solid State Drive (SDSSDA-120G-G26) [Newest Version] - $55

EVGA 600 B1, 80+ BRONZE 600W - $50

Ballistix Sport LT 8GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR4 2400 MT/s (PC4-19200) DIMM 288-Pin - BLS2K4G4D240FSE - $60

WD Blue 1TB SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 RPM 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch Desktop Hard Drive (WD10EZEX) - $50

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO RR-212E-20PK-R2 CPU Cooler with 120mm PWM Fan - $25

WIN 10 PRO OEM DVD + 1GB 128M X 64-BIT DDR2-800 MEMORY MODULE BUNDLE - $75

Total: $855

Note: All prices are from Amazon, which is what we are buying from.

Would anyone be able to tell if these parts are all compatible with each other?

Also, does anyone know if there could be better parts for the PC without going too overboard on the budget?

Thanks in Advance,

-Evan :)

Here you go, this is probably a good build. You don't need a cooler for a non-K processor. Also gave you a Z270 motherboard in case you want to overclock in the future. I replaced the 120gb with a 250GB hard drive. Upped the GPU to something more powerful, and a better quality PSU. I didn't include the Windows 10 bundle you had, so all in all it's $6 over your budget, but will give you more bang for your buck.
