Hello everyone, it is my first thread on that board, so i want to welcome you all!

I am planning to build a new computer, but thing is that i dont have enough money for like all best parts, and i want now to build my dream machine, so i came with an idea. I want to order:

Intel i5 4690k

Msi z97gaming 5 motherboard

Chieftec 700watt psu

kingston hyperx ddr3 2x4gb 1600mhz ram

and a cooler master pc case (k150 elite if i recall good)

 

I have money for all of that and i would swap my ssd from current computer and also mine graphics card (which is shit) geforce gt 630

I want to have gaming rig, but i cant afford a decent gpu now. 

I wanted to ask if the parts i want to order will do the thing? are they like high end? And most important if they will get obsolete quickly, cuz i want to have that pc for long time, and gpu i can afford in like 3 months from now.

 

I am really sorry for my english, i am from Poland, and wrote this whole thing very quick.

acutally i went to do some resarch and Chieftec gpus are pretty reliable, i asked many people and they do same the same thing, its not the chinese lowest end that would set my house in flames, with psu i am pretty confident

Links please? Besides you should still only buy PSUs from mainstream brands and you really shouldn't take chances with lower end brands or cheap out on PSUs as it can really can back to haunt you and I wouldn't dare put it in a gaming build especially if you're overclocking which I assume you are.

Chieftec makes only european 230v psu so thats probably reason you did not heard about it. I dont say its the best i could get, but from also polish sites that reviewed that psu it has been proved to do the right thing. and many people here says its pretty decent.
