Hey, I've been deciding on my build for a gaming PC for the last few months which I will build. (first time by the way) I have come up with a final selection and I would appreciate it if you could check out if the system would work if I bought it, any problems for whatever reason I may have, any improvements I could make whilst keeping the price the same (bear in mind the price which comes up on PC part picker is not current prices, the build would cost me 650 ish and I cannot spend any more!)
Thankyou so much for you're time :D

p.s Also I would appreciate it if you could suggest the best sites to buy from and where to get good deals /bundles. Thanks
 
Solution
The Sapphire Vapor X is usually a better card thanks to excellent cooling and good clock speed. But the Asus is not far behind and neither is GigaByte. Just get the one which you find cheaper!
Good build, just a suggestion, go with GigaByte GPU, its just as good and 25 bucks cheaper. Then use the bucks saved on better CPU, 4690 (3.5GHz Quad):
