Looks good except for a few things

1 Being that the Hyper 212 evo will melt at 4.7ghz xD So get a Corsair H80i

2 Instead of a 120gb ssd get a 1tb Western Digital Caviar Black Hdd as 120gb is terrible xD think about it

windows = 30gb

1 Game = 16gb - 30gb or even 40gb

So it isnt really worth it to get an ssd I must say

OoOoor Get an ssd for your windows so it boots in about 8-10 seconds and then get a WD Black for mass storage :D

hahahahaha so true, but i can deal with the SSD when i first get the pc because im currently on xbox and have nothing on PC! hahaha so it will take a while to get games, i think i can get away with the 120gb for a few weeks/months but not long after. and the hyper 212 evo will get replaced! haha this build is gunna keep getting upgraded, eventually the pentium will get outdated and get replaced! UPGRADING IS KEY YOUNG WATSON hahaha

I wouldnt recommend running your cpu at 4.7ghz with the hyper xD

Well I suppose you can try but im guessing you will save money on your heating bill as that thing will be hot as f*** :D

But I guess if you will upgrade to an i5 then get the 4690k as it offers the best performance for a manageable price
