Here is what I've got picked out:

Parts I'll be scavenging from my old rig are
PSU: Antec Truepower 850w Quattro (bronze)
GPU: EVGA GTX 950 2GB
and mouse/keyboard/monitor

I plan on upgrading the gpu when my budget allows for it, but don't plan on ever running dual gpus.
My budget is $650-700 CAD with shipping and I prefer using Amazon for delivery time/reliability reasons.
Would anyone recommend any changes or tinkering or notice any compatibility issues?

Thanks for looking

Looks ok, but I would probably get a better case. Say a NZXT S340 or a Fractal Design R5

Also heard that there's no need to get the x version... Only very minimal performance difference compared to the price you'd save

Yeah after some further research I've come to that conclusion as well. I think I'll get the 1600 which comes with a good cooler and spend the extra on either better ram or mobo. Looking at those now
