Hello,

I'm building my first high-end desktop pc. I'm an absolute beginner. I plan to buy these components:

ASUS Z97-PRO Gamer motherboard | http://www.asus.com/uk/Motherboards/Z97PRO_GAMER/overview/
Intel Core i5-4690K @ 3.5GHz processor | http://ark.intel.com/products/80811/Intel-Core-i5-4690K-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_90-GHz
ASUS Strix GeForce GTX 960 2GB graphics card | http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/STRIXGTX960DC2OC2GD5/
KINGSTON Hyper-X Fury Red DDR3 memory 2x4GB 1866MHz | http://www.kingston.com/datasheets/HX318C10FRK2_8.pdf
Cooler Master G550M (550W) power supply unit | http://www.coolermaster.com/powersupply/gm-series/g550m/
Seagate 1TB hybrid SSHD @7200RPM hard drive | http://www.seagate.com/gb/en/internal-hard-drives/solid-state-hybrid/desktop-solid-state-hybrid-drive/#specs
AEROCOOL Strike-X One Advance case | http://aerocool.com.tw/index.php/chassis/strike-x/39-case/strike-x6/254-strike-x-oneadv-information

Because i'm a beginner I want to ask you:

Are all these parts compatible with each other?
Will I get good performance with all these parts?
Will all of these parts get enough power from 550W PSU?
Is this build good?

I'm not that man who likes overclocking and wants to get out the last megaherz of the parts. I want my parts to last long. I have to buy OC graphics card because there isn't a non-OC version in my local shop.

u can go for a 8 gb 1600 mhz single stick to save up some money, games don't require more than that.
u got OC processor and OC mobo I don't see any cooling in it.
if u want to overclock then buy a cooler if not then drop ur OC u can go for 4690 and Asus h97pro. ul save a lot for ssd
get a SSD, its a must (Samsung 840 EVO is cheap and good)

I don't have much money so I think that now I would buy SSHD and after 1 or 2 years I will upgrade with SSD. Because if I buy buy SSD and HDD together I will pay much more than one SSHD.

I think that I can play most of MY games in 60fps because I mostly play simulators and I don't like games like Battlefield, Far Cry or other shooting games. I just don't like shooting. I'm quite person...

Thanks for support! I'm looking into the future and I want to buy parts that will be good to use after years. I think that if I buy very good mobo after some years I can change the processor and ram, but I don't have to buy a new mobo. Thats a beginner idea. So if I don't think right I can use cheaper parts.
