So this is the build i have decided https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/FmX3JV
I'm just curios about a few things before i start buying the parts.

1.If this would be a good build that can easily handle big games, Overwatch, Gta etc..
2. Should i get a hdd as well as an ssd?
3. I'm not sure if the case will work well with the motherboard, like if the usb ports will all match up.
Sorry i'm new at this and its hard to explain.
4. please give me your opinions on the setup and advice. all advice will be helpful :) Thanks

Thanks in advance

I have included a better cooler and psu. And yes you definitely need a HDD as that 120gb will run out in no time.
