After years of collecting money i finally bought parts for my pc. But now Im having seconds thoughts about their compatibility.
I7 7700
Ga-gaming b8 gigabyte motherboard
Kingston hyper X 8gb×2 2666
Corsair vs550
Toshiba 1tb
Samsung evo 860
Gtx 1070 gigabyte

If theres anything wrog with this build can anyone please point it out and tell my the alternative. Any help will be much appreciated.

What is your budget? That is all compatible, but you could likely make a better build for around the same price.

So not really sure why you went with a 7th gen Intel at this point unless you got a really good deal on it, if that's the case then the only issue I see is that power supply. The VS series is really junk and espcially for a higher end system like you have. I would sned that back and pick up either on the budget end a Corsair CX550(not the ones with green elttering)/CX550M or on the higher end a EVGA G3 550 or Seasonic Focus 550.

The time to ask these questions is BEFORE you buy.

Fortunately, while not best, your parts will work.

If buying new, you get more for your money with latest gen parts.

I see the corsair VS550 as one weak point.
550w is ok for a GTX1070.
The VS series is tier 5/6 on a quality list like this:

Sorry, didn't read your original post as thoroughly as I could have, apparently.
