total newfag at this
Is your router close enough to where his PC is to be able to connect to it with an Ethernet cord?

nope, different rooms.

He might disagree, but I don't think you need 16 gigs of RMA, you should be fine with 8 or so.

Also you really don't need an optical drive now a days, and if you're fine with pirating you can pirate windows seven, then legally upgrade to 10.
Also you might not like what I'm going to say, but I'd replace seagate with something else, they're known for being bricks that die in 2 years or so.

I heard that Radeon cards can get very hot.. maybe wait until the GTX 1070 comes out?

FTFY.
The highway says you can't go faster than fifty, but I tried it and it worked just fine.
I'll explain my changes.

>Cooler
The Hyper EVO is top notch for a great price, it won't outpreform the Noctura but it will save you those extra bucks while still giving you a good performance.
>Storage
You have SATA 6Gb, use it fampai. Put the OS on the SSD.
>Case
Why the FUCK do you want a full tower for a MicroATX board? This one is cheaper, nicer, and will fit your upgrades.
>Wifi adapter
This was more of a personal vendetta against USB wifi. This one has a strong antenna and bluetooth.
>OS
Pirate 7, upgrade to 10 if you really want to.
