I would get a 750w Gold Efficiency PSU.

 

And I would get a better GPU

So far that the GPU i found was the cheapest and good in my area. do i really need 750w?

The GPU is bad, but it isn't the best. (I have that exact model)

What are you using it for?

Why the water cooling on a non k cpu? Aesthetic? but then why green PCB ram sticks? I would drop it and put that saved money to a better GPU and/or bigger SSD

No compatibility issue here.

No problem with GPU, PSU or CPU, if anything they are overkill.

750W PSU and a better GPU?

For DOTA2 and Tera?

Really?

 

Then sure, I would recommend him to get a 5960X, a 1200W platinum PSU and GTX 980 Ti.

 

But for dota and casual use, this build is an over kill.

The CPU, HDD and RAM you already have, so no point to dwell on those.

 

PSU 500W from a good brand is enough, if you can an 80+ gold then it's perfect.

GPU go for GTX 750Ti or GTX 950.

 

CPU cooler go for CM Evo 212 if fits in your case.

 

Otherwise It's just throwing money away.

Will it run Dota2 and Tera and Sketchup well?

Yes it definitely will.

 

Could you have gotten the same or even better performance for substantially less money?

Yes, you definitely could have.

I am saying, the GPU is average, the PSU is average, they are not what I should chose.

I would try and keep the standard held by the i7 4770.

 

The CPU could handle a lot better GPU, and the higher the efficiency PSU so less power is used, meaning cheap power bills.

What the fuck are you talking about?!? OP is using the build to play relatively easy games to play eg. DOTA & TERA. No shit the CPU can handle a much better GPU, and he doesn't need a better PSU.

Is the Seasonic S12II-620 80+ Gold good enough?

Yes it is but then again your current PSU is completely fine.

Drop the pro SSD just get a Evo...

 

Also the GPU and PSU does not look like the best idea try a MSI/Sapphire or XFX R9 390 and a Cooler Master V650S

am wondering, is my build completely fine to get started?

like i said:

 

 

Will it run Dota2 and Tera and Sketchup well?

Yes it definitely will.

 

Could you have gotten the same or even better performance for substantially less money?

Yes, you definitely could have.

 Get a 500W PSU, buy used if you have to.

Get rid of the water cooler, especially if you say everything is overpriced where you live, use air cooler or even stock cooler is perfectly fine.

Someone suggested to get the Evo instead of pro SSD, not sure how i feel about that, but if you're short on cash it's a valid option.

Get GTX 950 or even GTX 750Ti I also live in an overpriced country in europe and they cost 200 and 150 $ respectively.

 

The build you published is going to cost you more money and will not perform any better than the one i described for the applications you described.

 

 

I am saying, the GPU is average, the PSU is average, they are not what I should chose.

I would try and keep the standard held by the i7 4770.

 

The CPU could handle a lot better GPU, and the higher the efficiency PSU so less power is used, meaning cheap power bills.

 

He has this CPU already on hand, he isn't buying it.

System building is not about keeping standards, and it's not about what you would choose.

For most people it's about building the cheapest possible configuration that will achieve a given level of performance for a given application.

For others it's about E-penis contest.
