Okay so... This is my rig that I'm going to buy : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3hXkR

My questions:

  • Will my system bottleneck?

    How much aprox. fps I can get on let's say Battlefield 4 on max?

    Will this PC run modern games, without struggling?

    Can I overclock GPU and CPU?

    When I buy the components, will all the cables be there?

    Can every component fit inside the case, if not suggest a better one, but not expensive :)

If a component or something is wrong with the PC components, please explain and maybe suggest something similar.
 
Solution
I will recommend DDR3-1866MHz CAS 9 for optimum performance. No, the system will not bottleneck, but if you're playing on one monitory, maybe 40-60 FPS on BF4. It will run modern games, just not on ultra settings. Yes, you can overclock both cards. Yes, all the components will be there and it will all fit. I recommend the FX-8150 or FX-8350 for better performance.

You too expensive RAM and really cheap PSU in your build also i wouldn't recommend "LE" for OC get M5A97 R2.0

You can play most of new games at 30~70FPS on high setting maybe with low AA!
