Is this build good? Is there anything here that bottlenecks another component? I'm really new to the whole PC-gaming world, so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

It is a good build and will run games at ultra settings.
Happy gaming and a happy new year

Did you consider going for the i5 4670 instead and buy a ssd for the price difference? If you really like a ssd that is.

LiquidDonut · Dec 29, 2013

Vic 40 :

I might consider it. I searched up both CPU's and it seems they have almost the exact same performance on a range of games. Thanks c:

LiquidDonut :

That's why i asked.

Vic 40 · Dec 29, 2013

LiquidDonut :

Considering that you would even have the money for a "K" series 4670,but that would mean a more expensive motherboard too and probably will l take away the option for as ssd again.

Looking at the next it might be right to say that a overclocked i5 might just be better than a stock i7,

i suggest you to buy i5 4670K and any z87 mobo and invest more $ on graphics card or ssd

Is this motherboard good for the 4670k?

Vic 40 · Dec 29, 2013

Yes it is.

jay2577 · Dec 29, 2013

I wouldn't recommend a Msi motherboard.
Gigabytes motherboards are higher quality.

What about this one?

jay2577 :

Unfortonately, it's not on the list of components i can select for my build. ("Komplett" builds it for me, and i'm only modifying a preset)

jay2577 · Dec 29, 2013

It's a shame, i have known people to have some issues with Msi boards

LiquidDonut · Dec 29, 2013

I wrote on Komplett's facebook page, and they said that Gigabyte was bad at drivers and such.

jay2577 · Dec 29, 2013

Not in my experience but oh well.

Also, do i need a 600W psu for this build? I could potentially save some money by buying a 500 one...

jay2577 · Dec 29, 2013

If your going with the Nvidia GTX770 then yes you will need a 600 watt psu
