I built this PC on computerplanet as I have no idea on how to build a pc myself, but I ended up with these specs. Can anyone inform me of how good of a build this is?

It's really unbalanced . I highly recommend you to build your own PC. there are many videos that will help you step by step.

back to that build.

The PSU is really a overkill. Same goes for CPU. And if you're not planning to overclock your CU , you don't need a CPU cooler and Thermal paste.

A GTX 650 ti boost is currently on sale at Newegg for a REALLY low price. Fill up the rebates form , and get it for $110.

you get in-game cash for Warframe and Marvel Heroes too !

And for the CPU check this article for help.

I've now updated it to this, and it may cost a little more, but since I'm not OCing this might be better? Any info is welcome!:

The CPU you selected is a Haswell series CPU. It's a little more expensive than the previous Gen Ivy-Bridge one. But with that money , you could get a i5-3470 .

And why do you need a Z87 motherboard ? You're not planning to overclock so I recommend a Asrock B75 Pro3-M

You should plan on a Micro-ATX build. Check out the Rosewill Line-M case.

/)_- not the GTX 650 , the GTX 650 Ti Boost ! It's cheaper than it and better ! It's your loss anyways. Take my advice or leave it.
 

Problem is, I'm building it on a computer building website and the gtx650 ti boost is not available on that website.
