Power supply is crap.

Why pair a 4790k with a 750ti, theres a hug unbalance there even if you plan to upgrade later, its dumb

No point in getting an unlocked CPU with an H97 board

[DarkBlade2117]

This build is all over the place. I doubt that PSU will not last you, it'll probably die as soon as you startup the PC. NEVER EVER cheap out on a PSU. Why an h97 mobo with an unlocked CPU? You can overclock on it but it's harder and you won't get very good ones, just get the z97. A i7-4790k with a 750ti... That's something prebuilt pcs do. You not get at that point.

[OAcesync]

Unbalanced build, you need a Z97 board and that PSU is absolute garbage

ok so psu is changed and i was not looking to overclock it for reasons of i want it to last long and the gpu is the only thing in my budget range.

Around the same amount. I don't think a disk drive is really necessary but assuming you need it.

The mouse was kind of pointless, gaming mice are pointless, regular mice will do just fine, i picked a random good one, you can choose whatever but i say spend 40 or less on a mouse.

then get that mouse and monitor, but the rest should work fine.

As for the OS, as I tell others, buy it from reddit softwareswap page or g2a for $25

iit goes over my budget because i want the i7 4790k so i was going to leave the gtx 750ti so i can upgrade it when i get the money for it

iit goes over my budget because i want the i7 4790k so i was going to leave the gtx 750ti so i can upgrade it when i get the money for it 

 

the only real problem with that is you'd essentially waste money getting a 750ti and just replacing it later. My advice is waiting til you have extra money to get a 970 at least.

Here ya go.

 

You don't need to worry about overclocking.

 

High speed RAM at a good price. (better than lower speeds)

 

SSD for OS.

 

R9 380 so you are going to be able to play games at High+ Settings and get 1080p 60fps.

 

Cheap, but decent case.

 

Good Power Supply no worries.

 

Decent monitor.

 

I hate your Mouse Choice, but to each their own.

im not planing to upgrade for a while this pc will last me a few years then i would probably upgrade

[Inception9269]

For new games the 750ti should play games at med settings and 60fps, older games it can do 1080p but the fps fluctuates quite a bit. I don't see a 750ti lasting a couple years and being a strong choice. spending over a thousand on a pc and getting a graphics card that's about the same as a ps4 isn't a very good choice in my opinion, especially considering both consoles are very underpowered
