Great build. But if you want to overclock, then I suggest that you get a bigger (in watts) power supply.

[Terlingua0101]

And what ilikemacandpc said, you should definitely invest in a SSD to enhance your overall PC Performance.

I would swap out the SSHD for a HDD + SSD.

The 750W PSU will be totally fine, even if you overclock.

 

All in all very nice build.

The reason why I did not add SSD is because the budget would exced the limit and even though SSD are incredibly fast, I figured the hybrid drive would be a fair choice. The other reason is SSD do not come with much space and the money adds up.
