This is the build I plan on getting. First I wanted to make sure if everything was good together, and secondly I wanted to check if I was going wrong/losing out on money on any of the components. One part I was thinking was the RAM, although this was strangely one of the cheapest ones I could find.

Also NOTE: I'll be using a GTX 650 Ti with a 500w PSU at first, and I'll be upgrading to the new GPU and PSU listed soon after. Thanks for any help!

I'm pretty sure all of the parts are indeed compatible and it seems like a great build for the price.
