Is this system good?

[Deleted member 2519465]

Hi, Im going to build a gaming pc soon. I have been choosing parts for a long time now and I just need someone to take a look at it so I can be sure that everything works.

PC Parts:
CASE: Phanteks P300 TG
CPU: i5-6400
MOTHERBOARD: Msi B250M Mortar
HDD: 1 TB WD Blue
SSD: I have a M.2 SSD but im not sure who created it, so if i want a SSD which one should i get instead?
RAM: Kingston 8GB (2x4GB) DDR4 2400MHz
CPU COOLER: be quiet! Pure rock
PSU: Corsair VS550 (550W)

On Intels website it said DDR4-1866/2133. If i go over the memory, will i still be ok or will the CPU lock it at 2133?

 

[Zerk2012]

Older hardware and a low quality power supply.
The memory should default to 2133.

Yes, your CPU will do that for you through the motherboard. Everything looks good, if you need an SSD I would recommend you go with something in the Samsung/Kingston scope. Good luck!
