Intel i5-6500
Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB 2x8GB
WD Blue 1TB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM
MSI ATX DDR3 2400 LGA 1150 Motherboard Z97
EVGA 500 W1 80+, 500W Continuous Power
GTX 750 Ti WindForce 4GB
LINKPAL AC600 USB WiFi Adapter 600Mbps Dual Band USB WiFi Dongle Wireless Network Adapter with 3DBi High Gain Antenna up to 5G

i5 6500 is an 1151 socket, whereas the motherboard you have listed is an 1150, they won't be compatible - upgrade motherboard to a z170 or get an older cpu, an i5 4570 or similar.

Suggest http://www.tonymacx86.com/buyersguide/april/2016#CustoMac_Budget_ATX would be a good parts list for a school project on a budget.

I like this school. Where is it? One day, I will be sending my kids there

I would also get an SSD. A small one as a system drive. 128 GB should be enough. The rest is for the hdd.

haha yeah i got a ssd for the install of software and all that. The school is in portland Oregon if wonna move here . But trust me its a waldorf school and we DO NOT use technology at all.
