Go trhough and make your build. It's usually very reliable.

While you do that, here's a couple questions I'm sure you've already considered but would help us finetune your build.

Budget? Primary uses? Do you plan to overclock?

If there is anywhere you should not cheap out, it's the PSU. Got same brand but a slightly better one. The difference is only $20 and imo is worth it. Also might want to pick up a different CPU cooler like the Hyper 212 EVO or Noct D14 since the stock cooler that comes with CPU is usually terrible.

That said your parts are compatible

I got the vibe of a black/red theme so I hesitated in changing too much.
