Hey guys,
I'm kind of new for gaming and i need some advice from you all to setup a new gaming pc. I' m planing to by these following parts for it.

CPU - Intel Core i5 4570 3.2GHz Quad Core (4th Generation)
MB - MSI B85-G43 Gaming
RAM - 8GB DDR3 1333 Mhz
VGA - MSI Geforce GTX 660 Twin Frozr III OC 2GB GDDR5
PSU - Cooler Master 475 EX2
Casing - Silverstone Redline RL-01

I'm currently using a 18.5" LED Monitor. That do you think of this? Please give me your advice. Should I go for this or is there any better cpu or a motherboard that suits more than this?

What's your max budget?

Note that the components that you selected can't be overclocked.

The PSU can be better.

And for the monitor, the size doesn't really matter, what we need to know is its resolution, is it 1080p? 900p?... and of course if you're planning on updating it too.

You will be able to overclock this CPU if you want and the GPU is pretty high end. It's overkill for your monitor right now, but if you decide to upgrade it along the way to 1080p (heck even 1440p) your system will not suffer.
