Having a 750ti and a i7, it's unbalanced, you should get a r9 290 or a gtx 780 for the build to be balanced or get a i5 and use extra case to spend on a better gpu. I would change the psu to a evga g2 750w psu, get a seagate barracuda or wd blue instead, get 8 gb of 1600mhz ram instead of 2400mhz, and a hyper 212 evo instead. 

Plus a 750ti wouldn't play watch dogs on high graphics well.

I was really waiting for that 750TI. I expected it, in fact.

 

What company are you buying this from?

 

get an i5 and a 280/X

Hi,

About the drives you chose, in case you want to run games and programs from your HDD as well as from the SSD, then WD Black would suit excellent to the build, because it was designed and tested for high-performance workstations and also has a 5 years limited warranty.

Nevertheless, if you intend to use it as a storage drive or for everyday computing, then I would suggest to take a look at WD Green or WD Blue. You may find more information about them in the official WD site.

Hope this helps.

If this post helped you, please like and choose it as a best answer.   :)
