I have been looking to build my 1st computer as i have only just got together enough money. However before i buy all the parts I am looking to make sure that this would all work together and work well for the overall price. I would probably be using the computer for gaming as well as photoshop and a few other things. I would also like to know if i would have any problems with other things such as cooling etc.

These are the parts i had picked out:
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600
GPU: gigabyte Rx 570 aorus 4gb
MBD: MSI B350M Gaming PRO AM4 AMD B350 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 HDMI Micro ATX
RAM: Corsair CMK8GX4M1A2400C16 Vengeance LPX 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) DDR4 2400 MHz
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1tb 3.5in
PSU: EVGA 600 Watt 80 plus wired atx psu
Case: Aerocool CS-1102 Mini Micro ATX Tower

Thanks for your time.

What is your budget?

I would wait for the processor purchase because the 3000 series of Ryzen will be released next week, The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) will be from 1-8 to 1-11 so you may be able to buy a new 3000 series CPU if money is right, or purchase the 2200, 2500, 2700x if your budget is tight. You may also be able to afford one of the newer 3000 series CPUs as well. RAM, I suggest you getting MINIMUM 16 GB. I hear from so many people, "16 GB is so much RAM." Yeah, ok.. run FO 76 and watch the memory leaks eat you up.
Rryzen CPUs perform best with 3000 MHz RAM, just some information for you. The Ryzen stock CPU Coolers are great. So once you get your PC up and running, you can run some photoshop apps and games while analyzing the PC temperatures by using HWInfo or SpeedFan for temperature readings.

As a result of your budget, wait until the 3000 series releases next week and then see what you can do. You may be able to purchase the 16GB if the prices drop enough for the 1600.
