I'm looking to build a new PC; not for hardcore gaming and over clocking, just something that will run the latest games like the upcoming Battlefront 3. Bare in mind, 60-80 frames is enough for me I'm not aiming for an excessive 200. Here is what I pieces together;

i5 4690K
Nvidia GTX 750 Ti
4 GB DDR3 (able to upgrade up to 8)
MSI X99A Krait Edition motherboard

I'm unsure as of what PSU I should buy, I had in mine the Corsair Builder Series CX 430 Watt ATX/EPS 80 PLUS Bronze Power Supply Unit.

Will this work well enough for the likes of Battlefront 3 and Battlefield?

If there's anything I'm missing from the build just let me know (besides HDD)
 
Solution
As mentioned cpu and motherboard are incompatible. The CX series are not good and best avoided. What's your budget for the tower (not including os and peripherals) and I can post a build.

If the motherboard is not compatible I could always go to a cheaper MSI H81M-E33 LGA1150 M-ATX Motherboard. It supports up to i7, so I'd say it's safe to presume it supports i5 also?

At the moment my CPU is pretty damn old and that's why I'm trying to upgrade a lot; it's an AMD Athlon II x2 250 and it seems pretty sluggish
