Hey i'm new to PC gaming and i'm planning to build one.
So all i wonder is if this build would work and if it could keep up with the games coming out this year.

Case: Corsair Graphite 230T Midi Tower Orange
PSU: Cooler Master B500 VER.2, 500W PSU
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K
Motherboard: ASUS B85-PRO GAMER, Socket-1150
Memory: HyperX Fury DDR3 1600MHz 8GB Red
GPU: ASUS GeForce STRIX GTX 960 2GB
Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda® 2TB

Thanks in advance.
 
Yes and no.

Fixed build incoming.

Edit:

Here's the better build, you had a overclockable CPU, but not an overclockable motherboard, you were also vastly overspending on that motherboard as well. Ram could be gotten cheaper, GPU as well. Two 1TB hard drives will give you more flexibility (and backup) than one 2 TB drive. You can overclock somewhat with the stock intel heatsink, but an aftermarket one is recommended. It can cost between 25-70 if you want a air cooled or watercooled one.
