Hi all, first post. About to buy components to build a PC and replace the old one. Mainly used for simple word processing, a lot of surfing and movies, and a little bit of gaming (only CS).

Would what I list below be overkill, just enough or in need of upgrades? TIA

Corsair Carbide SPEC-M2
Gigabyte GA-H170M-DS3H or ASRock Z170M Extreme4
Intel i5-6500 3.2Ghz
EVGA-GeForce-GTX-1050-SSC or EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti SC GAMING
1TB HDD
ASUS Xonar DGX PCI-E GX2.5 Audio Engine Sound Card

Any thoughts? Thanks!
P/S: Trying to keep this under $800

Please don't do that.
The PSU is the heartbeat of your system. Cheaping out on that carries a good possibility of killing other parts.
And RAIDMAX is at the bottom of the barrel.

Koreanoverlord, thanks

USAFRet - PSU not decided yet, probably a Raidmax Thunder V2 (easily and locally available to me)
The soundcard is the last thing I threw on the list. Most likely not gonna get it.
