As title states, im looking to make a new pc with having abit of a budget. Just would like to know your thoughts on this build?
If you guys think any parts need changing pls dont hesitate!

Mainly looking to play pubg and csgo with max settings. ( or at least stable fps) Also, i wouldnt mind streaming down the future but sydney has really crap nbn lol. But for now just need a pc to game on 1080p

Price list from msy:
Cpu: i3 8350k $239
Motherboard: asus h110m-k $79
Ram: 16gb ddr4 2400 $220
Hard drive : wd blue 3.5 1tb $62
Ssd: kingston 120gb $62
Gpu: asus gtx 1060 phoenix $309
Psu : cooler master 500w $42

Maybe i could change the gpu? If theres a better one for the same price? Im not up to date with computer tech atm so idk whats better then what :/ thx!

Max budget i could spend would be $1000.

You could make that more clear that it has to be Aus$. That limits build to something like this:

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: Intel - Core i5-8400 2.8GHz 6-Core Processor ($259.00 @ Umart)
Motherboard: ASRock - Z370 Pro4 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($179.00 @ Scorptec)

8350 CPU will not work with h110 motherboard. Plus it needs a cooler (and rather good one at that). PSU you chosen is not good.

Dropped SSD and half of RAM to fit in budget, but you get setup that is both powerful and easily upgradeable.
