Building from scratch. FIRST TIME BUILDER

Is this build compatible/reliable (I have my own case)? What graphics card do you suggest (under $100)? I also am looking for suggestions on a PSU.

What other parts do you need? Keyboard, mouse-everything? What budget?
$100 will get you an AMD 6670 video card which is several generations old. What do you wish to do with this computer?
Will your listed parts work together? YES.

not a bad budget build
There are some killer deals on 6670s, normally $100, but there are sales right now for $60-80.
For the PSU, when you decide on a graphics card check the suggested power supply and get that size. As far as brands go, pick something heavy that is 80+ certified with a good warranty. Cooler Master, OCZ, and many other big name brands are a pretty safe bet.

I don't require any other parts. My budget is about $500. Super tight, I know. Just seeing what I could do. I'm building a gaming computer. Mostly dedicated to Skyrim.

If you are gaming, I'd suggest spending less on the CPU and get a petter GPU. Core i3 2100 is plenty for games like Skyrim. Get that and you are looking towards a HD6850/HD6870.

Check my sig for suggestions.

EDIT:

You got $500 for those parts alone?

For first-time builders, I recommend looking at these threads:

And although this primarily a troubleshooting thread, the first part contains a checklist that will catch most noob mistakes:
