I am going to build a gaming PC, I am using a 1080P monitor. i think i have found good parts and I am wondering if i actually did. i dont need a hardrive since i already got one and can get more for basically free. my budget is around 800 dollars but i live in norway so things are a bit more expensive than in america. but here are the parts:
 

Intel Core I5-4460

MSI Geforce GTX 960 2GB

MSI B85M-E45

Crucial DDR3 BallistiX Sport 1600Mhz 8GB

Corsair CX 500W PSU

Cooler Master Elite 430

 

Thanks for any answers!

You will have to make sure that the motherboard has a Haswell Refresh compatible BIOS (7817vA4.zip). Otherwise you will need a Haswell cpu to update the BIOS before you will be able to use the i5-4460.

 

Otherwise the build looks okay. Although an ssd would significantly improve performance outside of gaming.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
