I just want to know if what I built will last and be good for 1080p gaming.

Intel core i5 4570 CPU quadcore 3.2 GHz
(Haven't bought yet)

MSI B85-G41 Motherboard
(Haven't bought yet)

G Skill Sniper Series 8GB DDR3 1600 MHz non ECC unbuffered ram
(Haven't bought yet)

WD 1TB mechanical hardrive 7200RPM 6gb/s cavier black
(Already purchased)

EVGA GTX 660 TI (SC) graphics card ($220 from a friend) (already bought) I realize I could have gotten a 670, but I'm just as happy.

DIYPC Solar-M1-G case (already bought)

Corsair CX750M power supply
(Already bought) I realize the tx series is a little better, but I am still good.

Windows 8.1 (64-bit) OEM (already purchased)

(I'm planning on getting a better graphics card way later on and an ssd in the future.)

I'm not going to be overclocking as you can tell by my cpu and chipset.

I will HIGHLY recommend a i5-4670k with a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO and a Z87 motherboard, as you can overclock it and get much better performance, but if it is out of your budget, then the 4570 is still a great processor. I will recommend a better PSU as the Corsair CX series aren't very reliable, but if you don't want to, then it's decent for a first time build.
