CPU is incompatable with motherboard, get a z97 mobo and ddr3 memory. Get win7/8 from reddit,com/r/microsoftsoftwareswap and a different psu, such as what bob suggested.

You've got an 1150 CPU with a 2011-3 MB. Either change the board for a Z97 or change the CPU to a Haswell-E.

Other than that its a beast.

I got my 980ti for 1000 dollars at pcasegear or you can also get it mwave at same price and only around 100 max on shipping. Should consider changing your PSU.. to EVGA, RMI,HX, HI etc, never cheap out on PSU.. with that expensive build.
