hello everyone,

i'm building my first PC ever and im kinda new to this whole thing, i would really appreciate any advice to better my PC within the same price.

CPU - Intel Core i5-4690 Processor (6M Cache, 3.90 GHz)
CPU cooler - Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
PSU - Corsair RM Series 850 Watt ATX/EPS 80PLUS Gold
Graphics card - MSI GTX 970 4G Overclocked
RAM - Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz
Motherboard - MSI ATX DDR3 2600 LGA 1150 Motherboards Z97-G45 GAMING
SSD - Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD
Hard Drive - WD Blue 1 TB Desktop Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, 7200 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache
 
9/10, I'd change Samsung 840 Evo 250 GB, for Intel 530 240 GB, or Mushkin Chronos Deluxe 240 GB. And also, many people will jump to Your hair about RM 850, though I think it's a great choice. Anyway, he's way too overpowered if You don't plan on SLi in the future. So I'd get the 650Watt version, tops 750 Watt. And also, motherboard, I prefer Asus, but if You like MSi, feel free to hit it. If You want more options, for lesser price, look after AsRock. Anda s for storage, I'd take Red or Black, or SE/RE.
