dont get intel cooler, their cooler were pretty crappy i bet, better just use the included cooling fan. also get b150 mobo could save some money, the b150 support kaby lake with the latest bios(some were already included with bios that support kaby lake), also if you want to you can save some money by getting lower watt psu, but not a problem if you want to have some headroom for future upgrades. dont forget that not all of components you choose have the price there

this users an RX 560 instead of an RX 550, a Ryzen 1200 with 4 real cores instead of the Pentium, and a 7200 RPM 1 TB drive instead of a 5400 500 GB drive. the older Corsair CX builder PSU isn't the best quality, but it isn't a PSU-shaped bomb either. It will be fine for this build, especially clearance-priced at $20
