New build
Hello guys,
I already have an Evga GTX 770 Superclocked so I am trying to buy other parts for my pc.

For case, I am getting Nzxt H440
Psu: 750x cx series Corsair
Ram: HyperX Fury White 4gb x 2
Motherboard: Asrock Fata1ty H97 Performance
CPU: i5 i4590
Led fans: Corsair 2x and one Nzxt Led fan

I was wondering if I should change out any parts on my build for motherboard and rams or psu especially :)
Or any recommendations would be lovely and helpful. Thanks!

That i5 is the best bang for buck.
That is a great mobo for a great price.
Just make sure you get 1.5v RAM and remember that 1600mhz is the fastest that mobo will run.
Great case
You need to get a better psu. Avoid the Corsair CX series.

^yeah what they said change the PSU for sure.
The mobo is good but you haven't specified price... so if you're willing to pay more then some better motherboards can be the following:
Asus h97 gamer pro
AsRock H97 Fatal1ty Killer
Gigabyte Z97MX Gaming 5 <--its a microATX but unless you're going to use a ton of expansion slots (which as far as you said I highly doubt) you're getting a good mother board for ~20 dollars cheaper than the full ATX version. The only real difference between microATX and full ATX is that microATX has less expansion slots (and since you can't overclock the i5 it doesn't matter which version can overclock better).

I would upgrade the ram to 1866Mhz instead of 1600 and go with the cheapest you can find which is made by a reputable company (I think G.Skill was the cheapest last time I checked) since it gives you ~1 FPS faster but it only costs ~1 dollar more so why not?

other than that nice case :) but if you're spending so much on a case I would assume you're going to spend more on the other components. Otherwise you should spend a bit less on the case since you can get a perfect case for your parts for a lot less.

Also I recently made a build which is kind of similar to yours so if you want any suggestions or just to use it as a reference here is my build:
