First Build ever, need advise!

[Limalimao]

hi! 

what do you think of this build? I'm a little low on cash so I didn't want a uber machine (and I already have a 1080p monitor so no need to buy the best GPU out there). 

 

I'm putting the price both in euros and us dollars so you can give me your opinion

 

CPU - Intel i5-4670k (192€ - 263$)

CPU Cooler - Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO (19€ - 26$)

MOBO - MSI Z87-G45 (135€ - 185$)

RAM - Corsair Vengeance XMP 1600 CL9 2x4GB (83€ - 114$)

HDD - WD Caviar Black 1 TB (69€ - 94$)

Case - Corsair Carbide 200R Windowed (66€ - 90$)

GPU - Gigabyte GTX760 OC 2 2GB (225€ - 310$)

PSU - Corsair CX600M (67€ - 91$)

 

Total - 860€/1180$

 

My main doubts are the case (is it any good??) and for 1080p gaming is it worth to spend the extra buck on a 760 or a 270X (197€ - 270$) is fine? 

 

Thanks in advance!

Pretty balanced build. everything looks great for 1080p gaming. will probably do 1440p too

the 4670k is a bit overkill paired with a 760.
usually you should just go with the cheapest ram you can get, unless it has many 1-star reviews.
a wd black is not really necessary, I'd recommend a 1tb hybrid drive instead.

also pcpartpicker is a great source for this kind of stuff.

hybrid drives are expensive.

4670k is a perfectly good match for a 760

The ram is fine too

They are expensive, but not as expensive as a wd black drive.

not saying a 4670k is a bad option, just not the most cost-effective, see http://youtu.be/pP88nWrHAkE?t=1m48s

the ram is actually nearly double the price it needs to be.
