Hello! I'm building a new gaming pc and need advice on wich parts should i select (I'm kinnda on budget). I wanted to build the pc on ryzen 5 1600x, Cooler master masterliquid lite 240, GTX 1050 Ti, DDR4 16gb ram, 256gb SSD x2, aerocool cylon mini, MICRO-ATX motherboard.
I would really appreciate the help on suggesting good but relatively cheap motherboard (on reaserch found that want the x370), graphics card, RAM and PSU.
Also could you tell in the liquid cooler will fit in this case?
Thanks for help!

As Mandark said, start with adding the CPU to the build list, by default, site excludes incompatible parts from all future parts.
Yes, you would get lot of A320 and B320 options on motherboard list but... if you plan on overclocking the CPU, prefer X over A and B's since their VRM's tend to be less good. Especially in micro-ATX form since most go small for quiet/non overclocking purposes.
not always but.. price difference between A320 and X370M is like... 63 vs 78
so on motherboard, select size, micro-ATX and sort results by price. Usually it is a good idea to also see how others have rated parts, no point in buying unknown if same priced part has lots of 4 or 5 star recommendations.
the selections on left are mostly for things you KNOW...
PCPartPicker.com will let you do just that. Start with the CPU you want and it will show you compatible motherboards and keep all of your parts compatible and if they’re not it will warn you
 
I already was on there and when i started searching for motherboards I couldn't understand what I need in them, like PCI 3gen x16(I dont't understand what that means and what do i need to search in motherboard for compatibility with the cpu and what other) and things like that

For memory, Ryzen loves fast. Dual channel is also better than single, so on left choose 2x8GB (so 16 total) giving you only dual channel kits to choose from, sort again by price and look for higher speeds.

That is where all that got me so far.

Thank you so much! I will take in consider all your recommendations. Oh and last question will the coolermaster masterliquid lite 240 fit in the aerocool cylon mini?
 
Fit in there? possibly, but only on the front, where there is space for 2x120mm fans as intake.
yes, two 120mm fans.
Problem with that is that the radiator on the masterliquid is a bit bigger than it's two 120mm fans, making the fit either tight or slightly questionable.
Second bigger problem with that is, it is about as far from CPU as the case allows and thus the pipes on the cooler will quite likely NOT be long enough to reach that far.

Also case's front fan setup is not really meant as exhaust (front panel is in the way) and thus you would have to take the radiator/fans apart and switch them around to pull configuration.
this would introduce the problem of "no dust filter for radiator" which sounds like a bad decision.

so.. I would recommend against said radiator/case pairing even if in theory, it would be doable.
