That sounds about right. I'd probably change the HDD for a WD Black instead of a Blue, they're cheap right now, and the performance gain is worth it.

That looks quite good, but I know I didn't include it but would it run bf4 on low smooth?

At 1080p, a 760 will run it smoothly even on High (not Max though).
