Very good build... you'll be able to play any recent games maxed out at 1080p resolution with decent FPS with this..

But

I'd recommend getting an i5-4670k if you are planning for only gaming and get a better PSU from Seasonic or TX/AX series from corsair with that money. Their CX model is crap and made for budget constraint people.

You don't need anything more than an i5-4670k even for heaviest gaming. However if you run a lot of multi-threaded application then getting an i7-4770k makes sense.
