    ROG swift? or a non gsync one should put you under 700

    if you can afford it, ROG swift, if you can't, the PB278Q is well reguarded and is what I plan to buy when I have the funds.
    edit: oh, and welcome to the forum!

    If you don't have plans on overclocking, I suggest you get an i5 4460 (or even any 4th gen i3 if you really want to be budget) and a non-Z motherboard. You could use whatever it is you're gonna save to get a better graphics card (GTX 970).
     
    Other than that the build looks solid as it is and again, lose the Novatouch you won't really need it at this point. It will be best to invest in the PC itself first, then get better peripherals once you're done.

    Just having a cursory glance, it's ticking all the price to performance boxes, apart from the CPU. Which is pretty much the best CPU that makes sense for any gaming build. Along with a Z97 motherboard. A very good combination, but not exactly budget.

    Ok, the build you gave us is about 170 over your budget.  Id suggest finding a cheaper keyboard.  If your set on having an ssd, maybe get a smaller one or change to a hard drive and save some money.
     
    If you plan on overclocking, there isnt much you change change in terms of the mobo and cpu, if you do not want to overclock, switch to a non-k series i5 and an h-series board
     
    Also id bump that gpu up to an r9 280, which you can get for about the same price
