honestly not that great.

you are listing i5-2400+cooler at around 105$, which is actually almost the price of an i3-6100 which comes with stock cooler and outperforms your out dated i5 selection.

motherboard.. really doesnt have to be any "Z" special gaming or what not, since you will not overclock. Just buy any H motherboard or regular, cheapest.

8GB ram is enough to start gaming, buy another 8 when you have money.

PSU, you should look at total power draw of system, but you definetly could get away with a bit less wattage and a better quality PSU.

GPU, is that USD? im sure you could squeeze out an RX470?

I think in your situation you need to look around a little more. (the reason i listed i3-6100 is because it's more flexible with windows version and motherboard are much easier to come across)
