Enjoy your BF4 on Ultra!
That is if you have a 1080p/60Hz monitor.

If you`ll have a 1440p or 120/144Hz monitor, I`m not sure you will be able to keep the performance over it`s capabilities.

So you have an 1080p 60Hz screen. This means that BF4 on Ultra will run great on your build.
Have fun!

Also, since you asked for suggestions, even if it`s not regarding your build, I like BF3 more than BF4 :)

Yes, the specs in my signature is my first build.
Just check out some tutorials on youtube, make sure you have a Philips screwdriver, and that you ground yourself very often so that you don`t short-circuit any part (but this should be included in all the tutorials).

All I can say it`s that it feels very rewarding to put it together, and to play games on something that you built.
