Are you going to overclock? If so you will need an aftermarket cooler, for example a Corsir H100i. If not you could save some money by getting a non-K-series CPU.

Also I would recommend an SSHD over your HD - it will give you SSD OS and app load speeds

I'm just new to pc so I probably won't overclock just yet. I will get a corsair h100i later and definitely a SSd. Will that system be able to run games at max or ultra

Since not going to overclock, I would go with this. You get i7 4770 performance for the same price as the i5 build. :D
