First time building Max Budget $1000

Hi and welcome.

A few notes on your build.

You have an unlocked cpu but you havent selected any cooler, are you intending to over clock? If yes then you should get a cooler, if not then you don't need the unlocked CPU.

If getting a cooler you should consider getting low profile RAM so it doesn't interfere with positioning.

I think at this budget you should also consider getting an SSD, it will be a great addition.

A 750w PSU is more than necessary, a good quality 650 or even 550 will be sufficient.

If you take a look at the sticky 'how to ask for new build advice' and fill out there template there we will be in a better position to help you  

I chose the unlocked CPU incase later on i decided to overclock i had the option. Would it be in my best interest to buy the cooler when i purchase all the parts for my build? I was not sure if i could just buy the cooler later on when i did decide to overclock. And when you mentioned purchasing and SSD were you advising i get one as my primary or as a secondary?

It's perfectly reasonable to get a cooler and over clock later on yes.

SSD should always be your primary drive, with mechanical as storage drives.

Any recommendations for an SSD and for a cooler? Would i still be able to keep the build at 1k max or should i be prepared to spend more?

Here's a build around 1k

Just change out the case for whatever you like the look of.

"MSI Z77A-G41 ATX LGA1155 Motherboard has an onboard USB 3.0 header, but the Zalman Z9 Plus ATX Mid Tower Case does not have front panel USB 3.0 ports" Will this be an issue or no?
