Hi guys,i want you to check my gaming build,if there are any compatibility issues or other problems...

Note:I am not going to overclock anything.I don't have enough knowledge and i don't want to bother with it,because i think this build is enough strong and i want my system to be reliable and last long...build link-http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1jIun


CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor ($274.99 @ Newegg)
Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Extreme4 ATX LGA1155 Motherboard ($134.98 @ Outlet PC)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($70.33 @ Amazon)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($59.99 @ NCIX US)
Video Card: Gigabyte Radeon HD 7950 3GB Video Card ($274.99 @ NCIX US)
Case: NZXT Phantom 410 (White) ATX Mid Tower Case ($84.50 @ Amazon)
Power Supply: XFX 550W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply ($45.99 @ NCIX US)
Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24F1ST DVD/CD Writer ($19.98 @ Outlet PC)
Monitor: Asus VS239H-P 23.0" Monitor ($159.99 @ Microcenter)
Total: $1125.74

As for CPU i don't want to go with K version,mainly because i am really not going to overclock anything and i am low on budget as well,so non K 3770 is OK with me.

I don't know anything about MB,but from reviews and suggestions i think this one is a good one.I am not going to "Crossfire" in future,if u can suggest MB at lower price with same features(without crossfire/sli support) i will rethink it...

Will 550w PSU enough for this build?let me know

At the end i wanted to ask you about UPS,i don't know what kind of and which one should i buy for this build,if you can suggest you will be very helpful
Thanks in advance!
 
Solution
a much better build

-there is no reason to get a i7 for gaming.
-there is no need for a z series board for non overclocking builds
-upgraded the video card
-added a SSD
-did not use a plastic case. there isnt a reason to use it anyways for a lower end build
-better monitor

If you don't want to x fire, SLI you can go for MSI z77 G43 motherboard. MSI>ASRock. Also you can try MSI z77G45.
PSU: Change to Seasonic Si II 620w
UPS: Go for any 1KVA simulated sine wave UPS

Thanks for helping me out,firs of all i would like to say that i don't want my pc just for gaming purposes,sorry my mistake.I want my build for a medium to high video editing,gaming along with other regular stuff.Your build looks great for gaming,but i think it will be weak for other activities...can SSD really boost gaming?i thought it just decreases loading times,if it is so,then i don't need SSD,as for monitor its great but i wanted IPS not TF and 5ms response time will be enough for me i guess.I don't know about MB,it is cheap,is it really good one?i would have definetely bought GTX770 if i had more money.Sorry for misunderstanding,i want mid to high range PC to be good for almost everything not just gaming
