Hi, I'm thinking of building my first computer for gaming. Earlier in December, I asked for advice on several parts but I decided to change them to make them cheaper. I would like to make sure that I am not losing too much performance. All I want is to play current titles on max in 1080p with playable fps. I will also like to ask whether all the parts are compatible and are there any ways for me to improve? Thanks in advance for all help :D

Parts List: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2RV3e

Optional: Samsung 840 EVO SSD 120GB
Note: I'm using a 750w as I would like to go for Crossfire or SLI in the future.

Get a Hyper 212 evo instead and unless you are planning to over clock you don't really need neither and you can get a i5-4670 non k instead with a cheaper motherboard. You won't be able to max out at 1080p with a R9 270, Get at least a GTX 760 instead. Make sure all the parts have proper driver support for windows 8.1.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm thinking of overclocking that is why I got a Z87 motherboard. I will look into changing the GPU. I will also be overclocking the GPU.
