Thank you for taking your time to read this. After multiple threads and research this is the build I came up with:
If you have any suggestions for the build or have any feedback on it please leave it below. Some thing I would like to know:
1) Are the parts compatible and do they run well together?
2)Can this system run games at 1080p with high settings?
3)Is the system worth in price what it can do?

Are you kidding me? with GTX 780 you'll be able to run any game in the market with ultra setting and at a resolution much higher than just 1080p.
Build looks good and should work just fine
But
I hope you already know this that with H87 motherboard and a locked processor you won't be able to overclock it in the future.
If you wish to choose an AMD system you will get an overclockable processor and much better value.

Better and overclockable 8 core processor
And SSD for speed improvement and a 1 TB HDD for starage
Much better modular PSU from a reliable brand Seasonic
