Total: $599.19

how much would i need to add for i5 and would that be worth it? I'm clueless about comps

Not worth it, you won't be getting as good of value unless you go for the 6600K.
Like the system bellow is a lot more powerful, and will last you a lot longer and has a lot of upgradability options.
You can easily overclock this system to 4.0GHz too.

I can even make it a little cheaper by cutting some costs on some of the more premium parts.

hmm forgot that i'd need a monitor

What is your budget with a monitor? Do you care about size of monitor, IPS or not, Higher frequency or not?

most i'd go is 800-1k
(total)
i'd prefer a medium sized monitor, pref somwhat high def

Overall way better system that will last you a lot longer.
If you really want to be on budget change the SSD from an 850EVO to a Crucial MX200 like the system bellow.

Also, if you don't mind going $130 over.
With a better motherboard and monitor.

Alright. Thanks for all your help man. I'll consider getting these 1k ones but I'm need to consider how much I'ma make between now and next semester.

If you use it for gaming then you should not spend more on your CPU then on your GPU, since the GPU is the limiting factor for almost all games.
Maybe something like this would be more suitable. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/xLZ46h
