Help with my first bild

[SokPot]

Hello guys , after 4 years with my current pc i dicided to build one myself.

I live in Greece so prices are very different, but my budget is around 1000€ (=1280$) 
This is the build : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/GcyjvK total 948 $ , wich will be 745€ but with the prices here it is around 1112€ .

I will use it for gaming , mainly racing sim in a 1440p display , and also for coding for my university.
I am also plannig on experimenting with overclocking a little bit.

I don't need peripherals or OS. 

Any help is appreciated.

Thats a pretty nice build, but I would change the 760 to R9 280/X/285

Spend $50 more for a 280x

Being an NVIDIA fan, I would normally recommend the GTX 700 series GPU. However, unfortunately benchmarks speak for themselves.

that is a good build that will last you for a few years only thing about it is the graphics card you might want to invest in a better one i would say maybe a 770 by asus or a 280x yes they are more expensive but they will help future proof your pc ( i prefer the gtx 770 because i have a thing against radeon)

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvr928xoc3gdrev2 this  here cost 100 € more , around 310€ 
But i found a 770 this one ( http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-video-card-gtx770dc2oc2gd5 ) for around 320 €  .
Is the 280x stil a better choice ?

if 970 is not available  get r9 290

if out of budget  then  remove ssd  it will only minimize load times,u can live without it,

get locked i5 with h97 board

but lower gpu only as a last resort,it affects the gaming experience directly

 

heres cheap version
