Hey guys, I'm planning my first gaming machine and I was wondering if I am on the right track.

My aim is to make a PC strong enough to run FarCry 3 on Ultra smoothly, but also have potential to last until 2016. I also have a budget of about £600 GBP.

This is what I have so far: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/creepbgx/saved/4mIV

I'd like to hear any thoughts and suggestions for a way to make it cheaper without going for AMD, because I prefer the architecture.

Thank you in advance, you guys!
 
I would change the PSU to a more reputable brand. Antec, Seasonic, XFX.

Everything looks fine. You can change the motherboard to an h87 board because you will not be overclocking the CPU.

Also, a gtx760 will not max Far Cry3. You will be comfortably playing at high, but not max.

I picked the motherboard on the basis of supporting SLI on PCIe 3.0 (I have plans to buy TITANS when they go down in price) but I did look into PSUs is Corsair good enough to start with?
