I'm going for 1080p 60fps(or more) at ultra settings!

Go with an Intel i5. They are the best for gaming under 4K. There is no point of going for a six core CPU sense most games don't utilize more then four.

Ryzen is doing equally good in gaming. As more and more games are starting to use more cores than before, Ryzen is a very wise choice for more pc life and better blended performance.
Made a few subtle changes for better performance all around. Also included a PSU. See if you like it and feel free to ask any question.

I already have an Evga 600bq psu but how come you removed the 1tb hard drive?

 

[Hellfire13]

The HDD must have been a mistake. You can add that to the list. But the EVGA BQ series is not exactly a very good unit. It very low on quality and i would not risk my high end and brand new components with it, unless i am really tight on budget.

Damn I was under the impression that it was a decent power supply. I thought it was much higher quality than the evga B line of power supplies. Is it safe to use on a expensive build?

 

[Hellfire13]

Your call mate. As I said, with new and expensive hardware, i wont risk it unless i am too tight on budget.
Problem is, with these low quality units, there is always a greater risk. A faulty PSU can often take out another part when it blows. The risk reduces the more you move up the tier list.

What Psu would you suggest for my new build?

 

[Hellfire13]

If you have the Budget then go for EVGA Supernova G2 or G3 or Corsair RMx or RMi.
Otherwise Seasomic S12II or M12II are also good units. If you are tight on budget you can also go for the Corsair CXM unit.
If you check the top right corner of the PCPP list, the power requirement is somewhere in the 350w to 400w region. So a decent 550w or 650w should be good enough.
