Hi, I have been tasked with building a gaming rig for my uncle. The intended purpose of this rig is to play racing sims such as iRacing, Forza 7 (once released) and so on. This will be a 3 screen setup and needs the possibility of going to VR in the future.

Build Specs:
Motherboard: ASRock B250-Gaming-K4 LGA 1151 Motherboard
CPU: Intel Core i5 7500 Quad Core LGA 1151 3.4 GHz CPU Processor
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO CPU Cooler
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 G1 Gaming 8GB Video Card
RAM: G.Skill RIPJAWS V 16GB KIT(8GBX2)DDR4 2133MHZ 1.2V NON-ECC
HDD: Western Digital Blue 1TB SATA3 HDD 64M Caviar Blue WD10EZEX
SSD: Samsung 250GB SSD 850 EVO
PSU: Corsair CS650M 650W ATX Power Supply, 80+ Gold Certified, Semi-Modular Design, 1x (4+4)pin
Case: Corsair Carbide 270R Mid-Tower ATX Case Solid Side Panel
Case Fans: CoolerMaster 120mm Silent Case Fan OEM (x4)


Could someone please check over my parts to make sure I haven't missed something in terms of compatibility. Also, is there any recommendations on changes to the components. Price point is pretty set and don't want to go much higher. (Keep in mind, all products and prices are from Umart https://www.umart.com.au as it's a local store)

Thanks,

all seems good. Nothing seems to be misplaced. Have you considered 8'th gen i5 or 2400 MHZ ram ? ram should be just few $ away and 8'th gen will give you 2 additional cores (will have to wait a bit though).

Thanks for the reply. happy to hear things seem altogether. I did look in to them, but due to it's availability (i.e. Uncle most likely wanting this build in a week or so) I decided not to go for it.
