It's all compatible but it's not very good, and you shouldn't buy those parts. You're also missing a PSU.

What is your maximum budget including monitor?
What is your currency?
What exactly will the system be used for?
Will you be overclocking?
Any preferences(colour scheme, LEDs, etc)?

Forgot to list the power supply sorry

PSU: Aerocool Integrator 700W

Max Budget: 1175

System Usage: Gaming

Overclocking: Yes

Colour Scheme: Mostly black and yellow trim

I could put led strips in it just to light it up but not really too interested in that.

Sorry, I am a complete noob in this stuff, from Ireland so take that into consideration

8600k is stupidly over-priced again and doesn't make sense over the 8400 for the extra £75. If you really want to overclock, best bet is a Ryzen 5 1600 and nice B350 or X370 mobo.
