Components for a new PC

Hello, i was wondering if Intel Pentium G4560, Geforce GTX 1050 ti and 16gb ram is good for gaming?

It's more on the budget side, but it's doing a good job.

Good enough. You could also consider Ryzen 3 with the same GPU and RAM, more physical cores could be beneficial in future titles, and one very nice addition is that AMD claims support for AM4 platform until 2020, which means no need for motherboard replacement to upgrade the CPU. Just a thought.

I already have that stuff, but needed to send the motherboard back because it needs to update bios, but i dont have a spare proccesor.

Ok. Than just wait until they return the motherboard, and you should be good to go.

In that case it will be a good match. Basically, it is a core i3. For gaming, almost no difference.

I will also overclock all, so then i will have 4.0 GHz, is that right?

I mean, can overclocking do some damage to the PC?

Pentium G4560 is a locked CPU, so no overclocking. To OC, you need a CPU ending with "K" (i.e. i5 7600k, i7 7700k) and a mobo which supports overclocking (Z-series only, like Z270).
