Help on building my rig

[pranzer]

Hello, I have a budget of USD 2000. I would be mainly using this computer for gaming. Here are the details:

CPU : Intel i5-4670K
Mobo : MSI Z87-G45 Gaming
CPU Cooler : Noctua NH-D14
RAM : G Skills RipjawsX 8GB (2x4GB) 1600MHz
SSD : Samsung 840 Pro Series 256GB
HDD : Seagate Barracuda 1TB
GPU : Asus Direct CU II GTX 780
PSU : Seasonic X850 Gold
Case : Corsair Carbide Air 540
OS : Windows 7
Monitor : Asus VS278Q-P
Total damage : USD2000 (just on the mark)

Please let me know how this build is. Any comments and suggestions welcomed. Thank you in advance.

Edit: I do have plans to SLi the GTX 780 in future and probably run a multi monitor setup.

very strong build for gaming you should have no problem playing any game in the market right now

Would I have any problems overclocking the cpu and gpu?

You would not run into any problems overclocking. Looks like a great build, good job.

Thank you guys. Do also let me know where I could save on.

Honestly, without sacrificing quality or performance, nothing.

You could swap the Noctua out with the CM Hyper 212 EVO if you don't plan on overclocking much, but I love my Noctua and would recommend keeping it.

i personally wouldn't need a 256 gb ssd but it's really up to you if that were going to be my build i'd drop to a 120/128 gb ssd and put that money into a water cooler

Any suggestions to which 120gb SSD i could drop it to. Another samsung?

If you play generally a few games, (1-2) 120GB is fine, but I personally love having the extra space on my SSD (as it also performs better when there is at least 50% space available within a SSD). I also love having a few very large games installed at the same time.

Water coolers generally won't match the cooling of a Noctua NH-D14, only once you start investing an ungodly amount of money into your water cooling will you get better temperatures.

Keep your rig how it is, I have something similar and love it.
