This is what i was thinking about building.
PLEASE BE FREE TO CORRECT ME ABOUT ANYTHING HERE AND PLEASE TELL ME ABOUT ALL THE OTHER BUILDS IN THE SAME PRICE RANGE (600$)!
This would be my first build:
CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 1400 3.2 GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: AMD - Ryzen 5 1400 3.2 GHz Quad-Core Processor
Memory: Kingston - HyperX Fury 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) DDR4-2666 Memory
Storage: Transcend - 256 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive, Western Digital - Caviar Blue 1 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
GPU: Asus CERBERUS-GTX1050TI-A4G
Case: How can i know if the case will be compatible with all the parts inside?
PSU: EVGA - 500 W 80+ Certified ATX Power Supply

Thanks!

PCPP will help with the compatibility but, provided the case fits your MB form factor, for the most part you'd be fine.

For $600 range, you could do much better.
Some points:
  1. The 1400 is a pretty weak chip in the product stack.
  2. Ryzen really benefits from both dual-channel (2x4GB) opposed to single (1x8GB) and faster speeds - ideally in the 3000MHz range.
  3. The 500W unit from EVGA isn't great...

Assuming you're ok with rebates, this build is just about within budget:

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 2600 3.4 GHz 6-Core Processor ($149.99 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: Gigabyte - B450M DS3H Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard ($74.89 @ OutletPC)...

6c/12t, 2x8GB @ 3000MHz, a stronger GPU, better quality PSU.... Case is pretty cheap, and another $10-$20 would make a huge difference there.
