Hello
I am assuming this is just for gaming? If so 8 gigs of ram should be enough..

those specs look fine.
prices seem in the ball park too.
one slight amendment - maybe consider a 750watt PSU.

SSD:
Samsung 860 EVO goes for the same price and has 512MB cache over the MX500's 256MB.

Case:
Corsair 200R is a great alternative for around the same price. It's more sleek and less flashy, imo.

PSU:
Agreed with @Bruce. 750W is preferable for future-proof builds. It goes up in price $20-50 dollars, though.
Decent: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/CVkD4D/corsair-power-supply-cx750m
Best: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/MfJwrH/evga-power-supply-220g20750xr
RAM:
No idea how you managed that price, it is a really good deal. The cheapest I'm finding that RAM for, is $229.
