Buying this computer the 15th of February after I receive my paycheck.

A 600W PSU is more than enough and can save you some cash. 
Also, depending on local prices a 960 Evo M.2 might be cheaper. (It's faster).
Otherwise looks good.

I'm paying  €1979, which is within my budget.  Not buying a monitor and new headset just yet though.

  • Motherboard (MOBO) - ASUS PRIME Z270-A
  • Processor (CPU) - INTEL CORE I7 7700K 4.2ghz
  • Hard Drive (HDD) - 1TB HDD
  • Power Supply (PSU) - CORSAIR RM550x
  • RAM - CORSAIR VENGEANCE LED LPX 2x8GB 3000mhz
  • Case - CORSAIR SPEC ALPHA
  • GPU - ASUS GEFORCE GTX 1060 6GB
  • WD BLACK 1TB performance drive

Pretty much a budget+ PC, does the job, no need to go for hardcore spec 2 month paycheck.

Upgraded ram recently, cheap 8gb 2.3mhz ram just can't handle GTA V.

If you're buying SSD, consider the WD Black first, it's nearly as good as SSD but way bigger and cheaper.
