Hey guys, I just wanted to know if this is a good build. It is my first build:

I3 4160 3.6 GHz

Gigabyte H81M-S2H

MSI GTX 960 Gaming 2Gb

Toshiba 500Gb SATA 2.5 8Mb (temporary)

HyperX Fury 4 GB (gonna add more next year)

XFX TS 430W

Hyper 212 Evo

Case: still searching. ( Nox Nxcbaysx, Bitfenix Nova or Cooler Master K280)

What do U guys think ? Thanks

Admirable
Good choices, but you can do a bit better.
You don't need a Hyper 212, the stock cooler is fine.
Which means you can afford 8GB Ram (you should get 2x 4Gb 1600MHz CL9
How much more expensive is a 1TB HDD?
I buy cheap cases with a good review on Amazon - most I have spent is £25 on an Aerocool QC 203

Yeah, I'm not going to buy the hyper 212 right nos. Probably next year only, and the 1tb HDD are cheap :D
The rest of the RAM, I will only get sadly next year. One more thing which would you buy?: Cooler Master K280 or Bitfenix Nova. PSU isnt modular :c Thanks :D

Its a very good build but, I'more into moba games like league. I will play also heavy games, especial bf4 and GTA v, but on medium-high settings. No ultra. Besides my monitor is 1360x768 so there's no need for an 280x. And the i3-4160 is better. But Thanks anyways, appreciate your help :D
