You don't need high frequency RAM, other than that it's a great build

what are you gonna be using this for?

 

why would you wanna change the gpu to a 760 or a 960? keep the 290.

And is the mobo good and how much can i oc with it (New to Intel OCing) just to help in the future 

the motherboard should give you a decent amount of overclocking since it is a z97 motherboard, it all depends on your cpu chip though.... some might have better results than your overclock.

ok i can also go for the Msi Z97A Gaming 7 it costs more but would it be worth it?

yeah you can also go for that motherboard if you want, but you'll see minimal differences in performance. you might miss out on a few features but it's up to you...
