My first custom gaming desktop build.. any last minute tips?

[smilingdylan]

Total: $643 (+$89 for SSD, which I already own)
Still trying to decide on RAM, PSU, Fans.
Are the PSU and Fans from the 'Soap Kitchen Gamer' sufficient for this build?

Case: $64.99
NZXT S340 Mid-Tower Chassis (Black)

Motherboard: $49
Gigabyte Intel H110

Processor: $117
Intel Core i3-6100 3.70 GHz Processor

GPU: $289
MSI GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming X 6GB

HD: $89 -- ALREADY OWNED
Samsung 850 EVO - 250GB

RAM: $38.99 (free shipping)
G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2133

PSU: $79.99 + $5.99 shipping
SeaSonic G Series SSR-550RM 550W


I think that's it!

Thinking of adding this as the RAM option (and upgrading to a second stick for 16GB total later on when I can afford it):

RAM: $34.99
G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 8GB 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2800 (PC4 22400)

If you are going the i3-6100 route, H110 can't handle speeds above DDR4-2133 with XMP enabled. So you need something more like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104532

And then for PSU I would consider something like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151119

Remember for a budget rig that PSU is something you do not want to go cheap on.

I had no idea!
Saved my day, holy moley thank you.
Thing is, I wanted to get 1 8gb stick to get another of the same later on when I can afford it and be at 16 with two sticks. is there a 2133 version of the one I posted? I can find it on the Gskill website here: http://www.gskill.com/en/product/f4-2133c15d-8gvr but I can't find a single 8gb stick from any retailers

And Re. the PSU - that one looks perfect. Thank you!

Also, is this fan sufficient?

Yeah you're probably not going to. On any dual channel or quad channel system you always want to have a matched set. Nothing wrong with the Kingston RAM I posted but if you want to get G Skill there is this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231882&cm_re=ddr4-2133-_-20-231-882-_-Product

Honestly that's not something I would worry about buying. Most cases these days come with plenty of cooling to begin with and there really isn't a need to buy extra. You can always buy more fans as you need them though.

ahah! I really wasn't even sure the case came with one!
Thanks for these tips man!
I really just wanted the g.skill ram because the style and color will match the gpu nicely and I switched to the NZXT S340 Mid-Tower Case too

Build's totalling $643 since I already own the HD! (~$733 with the 250GB SSD included in the price)

I'm happy! Thanks everyone.
