Okay so I have been looking at getting a GOOD Gaming PC for a bit now its my first time building one and I used pcpartpicker.com to pick all the parts but can someone with more experience with pcs tell me if its a good build and if there are any incompatible parts??

Thanks!!!
 
SSD looks a bit small to me. Maybe think about a Samsung 850 EVO 250GB instead for 130$ from the same website?

8GB of RAM might be enough, but on a high end build like this I would go with 16GB, 2 x 8GB so you have the option of adding two more sticks in the future. If you are spending 500$ on a GPU, you might as well drop the extra 65$ on RAM to avoid a potential bottle neck.

You are also missing a CPU cooler. The K series seem to generally not come with the stock one, so this is 100% required. Hyper 212 Evo is a good choice.
