Well i'm thinking of upgrading my PC but i'm a complete noob when it comes to PC so i was wondering if the setup im going for will work with no problems and if it will be good for gaming.

 

Key:

Red text= I am upgrading to this.

Green text= this is an existing component. 

 

Motherboard: MSI H87-G41 PC Mate S1150 Intel H87 DDR3 ATX

CPU: Intel Core i5 4440 3.10GHz Socket 1150 6MB Cache Retail Boxed Processor 

GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 760 DirectCUII 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

RAM: 8GB DDR3 (not sure what make or if that even matters)

Hard Drive: 2x500Gb

OS: Windows 7

 

If more information is needed just ask and i will supply, and the reason this is in the troubleshoot section is because i'm not sure if all of these parts will work together so i don't want to buy them and realise that they don't work together.
