Please give opinions and comments about my first build. For example if there's something wrong with it , please tell me.

CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: ASRock H97 Anniversary ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (4GBx2)
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 4GB WINDFORCE
Case: Corsair Carbide 200R ATX
PSU: Cooler Master VSM 650W 80+ Gold

I don't have an SSD in mind since i don't want to go over my budget but i'll consider it if it is a must-have.
Thanks in advance.


 
About the only input I have is your PSU is a bit overkill for the hardware but that's not necessarily a bad thing. You could go to a 500W and still have plenty of power.
An SSD is not a requirement but a very nice thing to have and my favorite advancement in computing over the past 30+ years.
You might save enough by going to a 500W PSU to include an 80GB SSD (or larger) for OS/boot, I'll suggest looking into that
