Is my gaming rig good or bad?

Hi everyone,

I'm attempting to build my first ever gaming PC. I'm very excited - have most of the parts already. Please give critics or recommendations about my system. I live in South Africa, so if you recommend products, please try to provide links of suppliers in SA.

Here's my planned rig: [indicated in brackets are parts I haven't bought yet]

Processor: Intel Core i7 6700 @ 3.4Ghz
Motherboard: Asus H170M-E D3 micro ATX (LGA1151)
CPU cooler: Coolermaster H212 EVO air cooler
Graphics card: Biostar GTX 750 Ti 2GB [haven't bought it yet, but its R2000]
Memory: 16GB Strontium (4 x 4GB) DDR3 1600Mhz
Operating system drive: 256GB Samsung SSD 2.5 inch [haven't bought it yet]
Storage HDD: 5TB WD Blue (1x 2TB and 1x 3TB)
Chassis: Raidmax Tigershark Mid-Tower case
PSU: Corsair 700W [haven't bought it yet]
Optical drive: LG DVD Writer
Input devices: Wireless Gigabyte Mice & Keyboard combo
Other: 4x 120mm fans

This PC is intended mainly for gaming, here's the type of games I will be playing:
- NBA2K16
- Sleeping Dogs
- PES16
- Watching Dogs 2
- FIFA16
- GTA 5
- Need for Speed series (latest versions)
- Kane & Linch

Thanks in advance

Definitely consider changing your GPU - something like a RX480, gtx 970, or the new gtx 1060 (comes out soon) would be a smarter option.
you won't need 700w, 550-600w will be fine.

Thank you Rustigsmed for responding. I took your advise and bought a Seasonic 620W (The 550W PSU prices were similar to that of a 620W, so I figured it makes more sense buy the 620W)

Will now look into getting a GPU. I checked prices of the cards you mentioned, and my budget is very tight - so I thought perhaps a GTX960 will suffice for now. Then I will upgrade once the finances allow.

Appreciate your help, thanks.
