Does this build work well?

[dolcestefano 1]

Hi, I was planning on getting a new pc and was just wondering do these parts work well together. I already have storage devices from a previous build so no worries there.Any feedback would be appreciated.

It is all compatible. Why are you planning to use a CPU and mobo that are a couple of years old?

What's your budget? I haven't suggested builds in a very long time but... isn't that CPU quite old now?

MB + CPU - Fairly old hardware there... Look toward the newer Z270 chipset and the i5-7600k.
CPU COOLER - The EVO is ok, but check out the Deepcool GAMMAXX 400. It will provide a bit better cooling for less cost. Either are fine as a budget minded cooler.
CASE - The 750D is a full tower which is pretty large. You will be fine with a mid tower as well..
PSU - The XFX Pro will be fine and is a good unit. Also check prices on Seasonic and the EVGA G2 / G3 lineup.

My budget would be roughly 1500

If your choice is the 1080 or the cpu/mobo, that is a great gpu and will work with that CPU/Mobo.

That's a good budget to work with, and what do you plan to do on your system? Purely gaming?

$1500 is a great price range. I suggest something like this

If you already have them, then by all means use them. Skylake and Kaby lake are not significantly faster. I would get an evga b2 750, at the very least, and a cryorig H7 or H5 universal, for your cooler.
