Hello. I just wanted to know if these components will fit? And if I have everything I need to build a gaming pc?

Components:
Intel® LGA1150 Core i5-4460
MSI B85M-E45, Socket-1150
Corsair Vengeance LP DDR3L 1600MHz 8GB
Seagate® Desktop SSHD 1TB
MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming 4GB
Fractal Design Define R5
Cooler Master B600 VER.2, 600W PSU
 
Solution
Yes the parts all look to be compatible but the power supply is a bit low on quality. You may want to spend a bit more to get something better like EVGA 550 G2 or EVGA 550 GS. Cooler master V550 is also good. If you intend to buy windows on a disc then you'll need a dvd drive also unless you have an external disc drive.

Yes those will work, although the Mobo is only a Micro ATX sized and will look really small in that nice Fractal case. I'm not sure on the PSU, but it is listed as 80 Plus certified. I would opt for a bit more efficient PSU that is at least 80 PLUS Bronze Certified. This will usually land a you a bit more stable and longer lasting PSU (not always, but most of the time). I also recommend Corsair (most models), Seasonic, XFX, & Antec PSU's that are at least 80 PLUS Bronze Certified. Usually fairly well built PSU's will have at least a 3 yr warranty or more (just as an example).

Some PSU's to consider that I'd recommend (EU pricing because I believe that is where your buying??)

Some Case options to consider also.
