Hello everybody!
I am thinking about building a computer for myself, mainly aimed for gaming. I have a baseline of parts I have in mind but since I am kind of a newbie in computer hardware, I thought I should ask for help, especially in buying something this expensive.
So this is the build I've came up with:
[[Case]]: Corsair Vengeance C70 or 500R or NZXT Phantom (don't know if there's really any difference other than aesthetics between them).
[[PSU]]: Rosewhill Hive 750W (I believe I only need a 600W PSU, so I'm thinking about Corsair CX 600W instead)
[[Mobo]]: Gigabyte G1 Sniper Z87 (not sure if I should get a Z97, maybe ASUS Z97-A).
[[CPU]]: Intel Core i5-4670k
[[Cooler]]: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo
[[GPU]]: EVGA GeForce GTX 760 2GB O2G-P4-3765-KR or Asus GTX 770-OC2OC-2GD5
[[RAM]]: 2x4GB G.Skill Ares Series or 8GB Corsair vengeance DDR3 1600mhz Low Profile (Is it ok to go for the cheapest or is there any difference?)
[[SSD/HDD]]: Samsung 840 EVO 250GB and Seagate Barracuda 1TB.
[[OS]] Probably Windows 8.1
This build was originally from a well-known website but I felt like I didn't agree with some things (like the PSU, GPU and RAM), so that's mainly why I decided to ask in here. These are the parts I've thought about but since, as I said, I am a newbie in the matter, if you think some of these are just utterly ridiculous, feel free to suggest others
I appreciate any help that you can provide.

EDIT: I am trying my build not to go over about 1230$ / 900€.
