Can be improved, grab a 1060.
Mobo is also overpriced slightly.
@OP, spend a bit more and get a 1060 and this case.
The system below performs 75% better in games.
What's your budget for monitor/mouse/KB? I'll recommend some.

Thank you for the response Chugalug!

Love the recommendations!

Budget for monitor, mouse, and keyboard is probably around $300 total. I want to get back into PC gaming at a high level.

Any other recommendations would be awesome!

You could get the 1060 6GB from B&H and use Microsofts free trail.

I am actually working on making my first purchases soon as I had to do the responsible thing and take care of some other obligations haha. oh nice thank you for looking out!

I set all the parts on PC part picker and have been getting emails!

Any recommendations on what to purchase first? A friend told me to buy the graphics card last as prices are kind of high now?

I'd actually say get the GPU ASAP, prices are about to spike due to recent shortages, and there's a great deal on a 1060 3GB atm. Then the monitor, preferably as soon as you can too! $169 is a crazy deal.

I am almost done getting the remaining parts!

Just need memory and power supply.

The prices have changed a little and just wanted to check if you recommend anything else or what is on this list is still good for the price it is at now.

Thank you again for all your help!

Thank you so much!

Also, random but I wanted to make the color scheme of my computer to be blue.

Would this case be okay for my current build?

Sure the case supports the Gigabyte motherboard's ATX size and supports upto a 420mm long video card. The video card in your build is only 173mm so it has more than enough space. The stock wraith spire is only about 54mm in height while the case supports upto a 157mm cooler. I see no problems with any of your parts fitting. It should work great and has room to grow as your needs increase.

Thank you again for all your help! I am below even a Novice when it comes to this stuff.

Last question, would this case work with my current build?
