This build will most likely last you (without any upgrades) just a little less than 2 years. And I say only 2 because that GPU should be upgraded. More and more programs (not sure which ones you use) are beginning to utilize the GPU. Even something like a gtx 950 will be perfect for a very long time. (Not to say that the 670 is a bad card. Should be good for now.) Aside from that, with the upgraded GPU, you could get 4+ years out of this. The 4790k is a very capable CPU and should last quite a while. If you plan on this being a "forever" rig and you don't want to build a new computer for around 5 or even 6 years, one thing to possibly upgrade would be your RAM. 32 gigs would be more than enough.

Especially if you look at how the first i7's are still very highly demanded products, I see that processor still being in use for quite a while.
