Custom gaming PC

[xJellyBeans]

Ok im new to the PC building but im going to be buying a:

Intel i7 4770K
Gigabyte Z87X-D3H Motherboard
16GB of Corsair Vengence
3TB Drive (1 x 1TB + 1 x 2TB)
64GB SSHD
GTX 660TI 3GB (Will dual SLI after some time)
Windows 7

I was wondering if all of this will work fine together as i dont want to purchase it all for it not to work.


Thank you for your help

Hi. I would make some changes to this build :
Drop from 16 GB RAM to 8 GB. It is more than enough for gaming.
I7 change to i5 locked processor becuase I see you don't want to OC it. The main difference between i5 and i7 is hyper-threading. In gaming it is useless (not more than 5% more FPS)
Change GPU from 660 ti and money left from other changes to 7970 3GB. You can Xfire it later to have beast PC.

Can you suggest a good solid locked i5 for gaming as im not sure what ones are locked and unlocked. I might consider getting the HD7970 but could you suggest and PSU which can do all this and have enough for two GPU incase i xFire it at a later date?

You can use an i5-4670 or 4570 to save some money and as the PSU goes I would recommend something like a Corsair HX750 or a TX750 wich could handle crossfire and are reliable.

Would this build work well to play BF4 and other high spec games?

It would handle every game at high or ultra most of the time, but a GTX 760 or a GTX 770 really worth it or you can even take an R9 280X wich is basically a 7970 at 300$.

I might end up going with a GTX 760 or the R9 280x providing I'm able to dual sli it After time without need to change my psu
