You got some issues with that build, first off, a b85 mobo is a budget board and you can't overclock on it. Your gona need at least z87 or z97 mobo for that cpu, I suggest putting the money into the z97 mobo and i5 4690K devils canyon since that will be a lot better and be more future proof since broadwell will just fall into that mobo np.

And, you don't need 1866mhz memory, games don't take advantage of memory bandwith, so just get 1600mhz ram. Then get a 500GB HDD since they are so cheap I suggest just getting it since 360GB are around the same price as the 500GB versions.
