Is this build okay? I'm new to this whole thing and want to make sure it's good for what I'm doing with it.

So here is the build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/FQ6dRB
The games I'm going to be playing the most are going to be FO4, W3, FNV, and Skyrim. I made the build to hopefully be able to play these games from medium-ultra presets at 60fps and 1080p. For Skyrim and FNV with some ENB's. Is there anything in my build that isn't a good part and I should replace or anything that is overkill/lowballed. Please let me know.

You were on the right track. You NEEDED a better psu. I made a couple other changes to fit it in without raising the total costs or sacrificing performance. Threw in a better case too.
