I am going to be building my very first pc this year on Christmas. I'm finally getting into pc gameing and I'm really excited but I need to know if I need to upgrade, downgrade, or swap out the parts I list below. What I would like to be able to do is play a lot if not all games at 1080p 60fps with the settings completely jacked to max including nvidias physx on the highest setting P.S. I need to know if I can use my hdtv as a monitor or do I need a legitimate monitor. Besides latency amd resolution is a monitor necessary I'm trying to save money towards gpu and cpu
Budget- $1,300(including OS,optical drive, and keyboard and mouse

Motherboard- msi Z97 Gaming 7
RAM- Kingston Hyper x beast (2x4)
GPU- EVGA GeForce GTX 780 SC w/ACX cooling
CPU- Intel core i5 4670k
CPU Cooler- cooler master hyper 212 EVO
PSU- Corsair cx750w modular
Case- Corsair 200r

Open to suggestions but something to keep in mind I probably won't be upgradeing for atleast 3 years so I'll need this build to buit the Xbox one and ps4 and last for as long as they do witch I'm expecting is around 3 to 6 years

You should be able to use your HDTV, however some of them overscan, or zoom in slightly cutting off the edges. Most that do have a way to turn it off, but you'll want to look into this first as it will also make text look really ugly.

Don't forget to get a Hard drive or ssd!
