Ready To Purchase Parts...How's It Look?

[BecomeLikeWater]

Alright, so I came up with this budget build for my first time building and I'm about to purchase the parts. I would like to know if I got a great build going on for the money or if there's anything that needs to be or should be changed. This machine will be an all day, all night gaming machine and I'm hoping to have decent playable performance on this. Seeing as I'm coming from Integrated Intel graphics on a 2011 Gateway All In One, I think this is a BIG step for me. So, how's it look?:

Instead of spending $70 on an ssd, i would recommend spending your money on a better gpu, like an r9 270x. if only gaming on that pc, then the only part that you really need to spend your money on is the graphics card.

You can also save about $20 on ram if you do a little research. look for kingston memory, or avexir memory.

Okay changed up the RAM. Saved a good $20 bucks. The graphics card I'm gonna keep at a 750 Ti SC for now. I want to have a well rounded build and SSD's are something I've never had before, so why not. As long as the games are playable on that 750 then I'm fine.

What I would recommend:

- Get a Pentium G3258 and a matching motherboard( Z97/H97 if you plan to upgrade to Broadwell when it comes out). Better gaming performance and it's cheaper.
- Get a better PSU. The CX series uses cheap Samxon capacitors which can fail under load/ over time.
- The SSD should come with the appropriate cables for it, so no need for the monoprice cable.
- There really isn't a need for 3 fans, unless you want them for aesthetic reasons. If you removed them, the money saved could be used towards a better GPU -> higher frame rates.
