I am starting a new build and im wondering if any of you would change anything to make it better.
I don't need a graphics card because I have a 750 ti for now from my old computer, while I wait for the maxwell cards.
I also live in canada.
my budget is also about $1000.

Here it is:
Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
MSI Z97-Gaming 3 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Seagate Barracuda 500GB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Corsair 450D ATX Mid Tower Case
Corsair RM 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

Kingston HyperX 3K 120GB 2.5in SATA3 SandForce SF-2281 SSD Drive

Thanks for the feedback!

Get a 450W (even this is plenty for this particular setup) power supply and a larger harddrive.

Why not ? It is cheaper than the Corsair for starters, so it's not like He would be wasting money.
