Hey, I am new to PC Gaming and I plan to build my first Gaming PC in a few weeks/months.
I have made a list of specs but I am not too sure if they would be good enough for gaming, I may aswell mention I plan on playing games such as Battlefield 4 and other common FPS's and soon to be released such as Titanfall. But here are my specs and if you guys could tell me if they are all compatible with one another and if I could play mostly any new game on High+ Settings, thanks!
So the list of specs are :
Processor : Intel Core i5 4670k (3.2GHz, Don't plan on OC'ing yet)
Motherboard : Asus Z87 Pro
Hard Drive : 1TB Seagate Barracuda
Power Supply : Corsair 750W-CX Builder
RAM : 8GB (2X4) DDR3 1600MHz Corsair Vengeance
SSD : Samsung 120GB (Plan to install Windows 7 and a few games onto this)
Case : Corsair 500R Series
OS : Windows 7 64-bit
Graphics : EVGA Geforce GTX 760 Superclocked 1072MHz
Again, if any of these parts are incompatible or more importantly, compatible, please let me know and please let me know if I missed out on any parts that I need to build a PC and finally if these parts are good enough for "hardcore" gaming, for running games such as Titanfall,Battlefield 4 and other common FPS's on high settings please tell me! Thank you! :)

All this works, but I would go with a Corsair power supply, go down to 600 watt, and try to push for a GTX 770.

Yea, these specs should be great for gaming. BF4 should run at about 60 fps on ultra in 1080p. So should Titanfall and most other games. Also, all the parts are compatible with eachother. :)  hopefully i answered your questions.

I don't normally recommend a SSD for gaming until you're over $1500 for a budget, which would have an i7-4770k and a GTX 780ti. An i5-4670k i recommend a GTX 780 with, and that budget is around $1200. Budgets before windows.

The PC will work great, but just realize you will not be playing games at max settings, which is fine. And if you play BF4 in multi-player, you will get dips below 60 FPS. Maybe even down to 40 FPS. This is normal.

I understand, but I am gonna upgrade the Graphics to a EVGA Geforce GTX 770 1111MHz instead, but yeah I just wanna play near max, not totally maxed out, but if I can play maxed out with no lag then that's great too :p
