Not a bad list of parts but wouldnt use the PSU anywhere near any computer.
You should also note the compatibility issue with the aftermarket cooler and keep in mind that by using it you wil void your AMD CPU warranty.
Well I checked alot of different fan gpu coolers, most of which had incompatibility issues, I do not want to spend alot of money on water cooling, and I doubt that matters in smaller builds. As for the PSU, I wanted one from the same brand so that my case would have no problems with fitting it. As for the Monitor, I have chose to avoid 4k and to use my old VIZIO tv, which is larger than most monitors. But I would like some advice on which monitor to chose between my used VIZIO tv or a monitor from best buy, where screen prices have gone down by hundreds.

You do not need a third party cooler, your CPU ships with a perfectly good one and as previously advised if you use anything else and your CPU fails you have no warranty, in case you ask, yes it is possible to identify the use of a third party cooler, they have rather expensive equiptment to help them do so.

Any generic ATX PSU will fit in your case and being honest I wouldnt trust the Thermaltake - Smart 530W PSU as a doorstop, expensive junk that is not even Bronze efficiency rated described on Toms PSU Tier list here as the following;
Tier Four
Built down to a low price. Not exactly the most stable units ever created. Very basic safety circuitry or even thin gauge wiring used. Not for gaming rigs or overclocking systems of any kind. Avoid unless your budget dictates your choice.
A much better, less expensive and far safer PSU is the SeaSonic G Series SSR-550RM
