Hello community, im looking forward to build a gaming pc and i need some advice on the parts
Part List :
CPU:Intel Pentium G3258
CPU Cooler : Corsair h100i (futureproof)
Mobo: Asus B85M-G ( is it capable to overclock the cpu)
Ram : Corsair Vengeance LP (2x4GB) CL9 (is this compatible with this motherboard?)
GPU : MSI GTX 760 (wont this bottleneck)
PSU : Corsair CX600M
Case: Fractal design mini r2

Any advice on parts or changing them? The budget 7000 Norwegian Kroners
Thanks in advance!!
 
Solution
1, You don't need the CLC for a G3258, get it when you upgrade
2, A Z97 board will be better but a few bucks more expensive
3, For the money to buy a 760, you should get an 280x or 290 as they are more powerful than the 760
4, CX units use poor caps, so something like the EVGA 600B will be better
5, I don't like mini towers as they are kinda cramped

I'd recommend something like the setup below & it also has Turbo capability to overclock itself to 3.9GHz:
