So im new to PC Building but I have created a build already which will be posted down below. I got a MSI Radeon R9 380 and 8gb ddr4 ram from my friend so that has already been purchased. My budget for the build is $700-900 CAD. This PC will be used for gaming, schoolwork and streaming and i would like to run games at 1080p with 60fps.any suggestions for my build regarding performance or compatibility is greatly appreciated, Thanks.

looks good. you don't need the cooler with teh 7500, so that's $15 saved right off the bat. The default cooler will cool the cpu just fine, and is already very quiet.

the 380 is ok (it's between a 460 and 470 in ability, closer to the 470 but not quite there (the 380X and 470 are almost identical), so should be fine for a while.
