Your ram will not run at it's full speed. It will work but only at 2133 MHz. This is likely a limitation of the budget H110 Chipset.

Note:
1. DDR4 2133 MHz and higher memory modules will only run at maximum of DDR4 2133 MHz due to Intel chipset limitation when using Skylake CPU.

The Core i3-6100 is a Skylake CPU. All the other parts look fine.

I mean, you could gain $50 by getting a G4560 vs. a 6100, and $170 would get him a 1050Ti over a regular 1050.
