Here is my current build. Shout out to /u/mistertactful for the help and /u/fp4 for posting the sale on the video card. I plan on ordering most everything tomorrow. I do have a little bit extra money, around $30 since I was able to get the video card for $166 instead of $190. I also picked up a new monitor as an impulse buy :) Any suggestions on where to improve easily? Thanks again everybody.

EDIT: Here is an updated version, with updated parts from suggestions. While my original budget was $500 and this is quite a bit over, it's mainly because I went and bought a monitor that I liked. Without that, it'd still be right around the $500 dollar mark which is quite impressive!
