Changed a few things around.
4670k>4690k. No reason not to get the refresh processor at this point.
MSI Z97> ASUS Z97-A. Dont want to skimp on motherboards, this is a great board.
CX>XFX PSU. Much cheaper, and much higher quality.
The gpu can be changed to a 280x, it dosent really make a difference.
