Im Planning to build a rig for the games that is coming out/came out eg. BF4, Ghost, The Division or Watch Dogs
Is this a good build??
Advice Plz

Case: Antec GX700 Gaming $74 AUD ( $69 USD)
Mobo: Asrock Z87 Extreme 4 $189 AUD ( $177 USD)
PCU: Intel Core i5 4670K $264 AUD ( $247 USD

PSU Thermaltake Smartpower 80Plus Bronze 750w $109 AUD ( $102 USD)

DVD Drive: MSI SATA 22x $16 AUD ( $15 USD)

and a few case fans

I might buy Noctua NH-D14 cpu cooler in the future

Edited: I will be overclocking it

For a non crossfire or SLI build that is an expensive motherboard. I recommend a less expensive one from Asus or Gigabyte. For the GPU the r9 280x is perfect for you. In the US it is about 15-50 dollars more expensive but totally wreaks the 760. Also, just my recommendation, get an fx 8320 and a decent mobo and put that money towards something else. For my first build I almost went with an intel and Nvidia combo but decided to go with an all AMD build. This from a guy who has only used Intel and Nvidia in the past. I saved about 100 dollars and got a better pc.
