This is my first PC build, and I was wondering how good it is based on the components and how easy it is to put together. I want to use it for gaming on games like overwatch and CSGO but nothing to extreme, and for any school work I may have

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Processor with Wraith Spire Cooler
GPU:MSI Computer Video Graphic Cards GeForce GTX 1060 6GT
Motherboard: MSI B350 tomahawk
Ram: Corsair Vengence 8 gb DDR4 ram (2400Mhz)
Hard drive: WD Blue 1TB SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 RPM 64MB (I know an ssd is better but it’s also pretty expensive)
Power supply: Cooler Master MWE 650 Watt 80 Plus Bronze
Case: RIOTORO Full Tower, Fully Customizable RGB Color Gaming Case (CR480 - Mid Tower)

Hi,
Looks like a decent build so far, there is some things I can suggest also,

Are you set on the choice of the case? Seeing as we pretty much have the same build apart from a few aftermarket things I have added to my build and a more powerful gpu, there could be some remodelling with your build to make it easier to assemble and better for gaming.n Seeing as you wont be doing any extremely graphical intense gaming, 8gb of ddr4 2400mhz will do, however the extra 8gb of clearance is always good to know yoiu have it there to fall back onto if needed. The wraithe spire cooler will do for your cpu (but again upgrade it to an aftermarket if you plan on playing graphical intense AAA games etc.) Yoiu could change the case to the corsair 270r...

Your graphics card looks good and will be able to run everything at 1080p smoothly. If you go with my case suggestion, change the power supply to the corsair rm650x (very good psu). Your motherboard is also good for everything however if you want to scale things down in size (and in price) the MSI b350m Gaming Pro Micro ATX is great for what you need to do and is also aesthetically pleasing.

Hope this helps
