Hiya, new to forums/ building pc's :D , this is what i've come up with, would like someone to review it please.. ooh and im after a gaming PC

CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz unless there is better i5 for gaming ( not interested in i7)
Motherboard: ?
Memory: 8gb
Video Card: would love if someone could fit the geforce 770 or something similar to that standard
Case: dont really mind as long as it wont overheat computer
Power Supply: whatever is good :)
SSD: Samsung Evo 120gb SSD ??

wouldnt mind sacrificing a few dollars on the GPU to have the Samsung SSD and stay within budget limir

am i missing something? i hope this is enough information, i currently reside in Australia and i would't like to go over $1,500, the closer to 1,300 the better, thanks guys

edit: i dont want to overclock, dont need OS system/ keyboard/ mouse/ monitor

i like this a lot more.. however im concerned the psu may not be enough and what about the case, is it large enough to fit all these parts? again..i dont need an OS so it seems like a good 1.2k build

The PSU will be fine at max load you will only be using between 400 and 450 watts, the case will be fine I built a SLI gtx 660 setup for a customer in one of these cases one of my favorite cases since you dont need a OS i would go with this>>> I upgraded the GPU and the Case, this GPU is very close to a GTX 780s performance for half the price
