I've never built one before but thinking of putting this together for my son.Any advice on build would be appreciated
 
Looks fairly good to me, however, next time use, pcpartpicker, just serach it and you will see what i mean it makes everyones life easier, also you haven't selected a power supply, don't overlook power supply as they can cause a lot of issues, get a seasonic or a XFX unit dont get a corsair cx, make sure you get a good reliable power supply, for yours I would recommend a 550-600w unit
 
Thanks a lot for your reassurance as i'm just trying to figure this out,the PSU was an oversight omitting it from parts list but actually your answer gave me a better idea of what to fit, I wa actually thinking of a 750 W version but obviously not required. Thanks Archie.
