So i want to make a gaming computer that can run next gen games over 60fps at 1080p.
Mainly games like cod, bf4, fc4, dying light, etc.

Is this a good build?

i5-4690K Processor

Asetek 510LC Liquid CPU Cooling System

8gb G.Skill Ripjaws X

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 - 4GB

Gigabyte GA-B85-HD3

600 Watt psu

1 TB Hard Drive -- 32MB Cache, 7200 RPM, 6.0Gb/s - Single Drive

24x Dual Format/Double Layer DVD±R/±RW

3D Premium Surround Sound Onboard sound card

Windows 10 Home + Office 365 Trial 64 bit

Logitech S120 2.0 Speaker System

im trying to keep it under $1200
any suggestions would really be appreciated.

- I don't think you need liquid cooling unless you're doing some serious OC. If you don't, the stock cooler should be enough. Although you can upgrade it anyday if needed, I wouldn't buy it atm.
- Take a Z97 MoBo if you're gonna OC or H97 if not.
- You should take a better GPU, GTX 970 will do the job on almost every game at 1080p.
- You could upgrade RAM too, it's not that expensive and you might need it for future games, and for like 30$ more you could get 16GB.
- I suggest a 700W Tier 2 PSU, or 750 if you're planning on OCing.
