My first custom build - NEED YOUR HELP

[Cronnny]

Here is the link to my computer parts - http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Cronny/saved/2Z4e

So basically any suggestions and help will be much appreciated. I have a couple basic questions about my build.

1.) Are there any options I can substitute for and get a more reasonable price for while keeping performance similar.

2.) Am I doing anything wrong? It took me a while to go through a bunch of videos and carefully pick out the right parts but I definitely don't want to be missing anything.

3.) General suggestions, comments, opinions, concerns

Thanks you for your input everyone. It will all help to get me going on my first custom build!

First issue I see is a 4770k(unlocked for overclocking) with a B85 motherboard(not an overclocking board). And overall the system is unbalanced you have a high end cpu and a mid range GPU. You could drop the CPU down to a 4670k and get a better motherboard and gpu.

this build is better for gaming than your.
If you don't overclock don't need a K processor. With your mobo you can't overclock. I put a better video card and PSU.
