I need help determining if all of the components I have chosen are compatible with each other.

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/zLPNFT Here is the link for all the items I have chosen.

CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor

CPU Cooler/Heatsink: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler

Mobo: Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming 5 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 660 SIGNATURE2 LE 3072MB GDDR5 DVI mHDMI DP Graphics Card 03G-P4-2665-KR

Case: Rosewill THOR V2-W ATX Full Tower Case

PSU: Corsair RM 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

NOTE: I have 8 GB of ram, a hard drive already in my current PC. Please help!!
 
Yes it's all compatible but here are a few suggestions for the build.

1. Save some money and get this much better quality power supply.

2. Why the gtx 660? Conisder an r9 280 or 290, depending on your budget, or the gtx 960 if you're going with nvidia.

3. If I were you I would save some money on the case and put it toward a better GPU if you're gaming.
 
Solution

Thanks for the response! I looked at the power supply and it looks good ill get it!
Also is this a better gpu to use? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487091
And what case would u recommend other than this one but not super expensive ($150+)
 
Your budget seems to be about $300 for the GPU and case. If so I would get this combo. The 960 is a good card but for a little more the 290 is a much stronger card.
