Is this a good build for Battlefield 4, some steam games, assasins creed, and LOL at 1440p or 1080p?

I was also wondering if it would be logical to get a hybrid drive instead of an ssd. How much slower is the Seagate ST1000DX001 vs this ssd, and how much louder is it? 

 

 

Edit: I also want to keep this case, or get another one with a side panel window. I must use matx or mitx

Sorry, but I want to use Newegg and amazon the most (because I have huge gift cards for both of them)

I was also wondering if it would be logical to get a hybrid drive instead of an ssd. How much slower is the Seagate ST1000DX001 vs this ssd, and how much louder is it? 

 

That SSD isn't the best, get a Crucial BX100 or Samsung 850 EVO

As for the hybrid, no. I'd get an SSD now and throw in a cheap 7200rpm 1TB HDD (Seagate Barracuda or WD Blue) or just go mechanical only.

Project White Lightning (My ITX Gaming PC): Core i5-4690K | CRYORIG H5 Ultimate | ASUS Maximus VII Impact | HyperX Savage 2x8GB DDR3 | Samsung 850 EVO 250GB | WD Black 1TB | Sapphire RX 480 8GB NITRO+ OC | Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV ITX | Corsair AX760 | LG 29UM67 | CM Storm Quickfire Ultimate | Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum | HyperX Cloud II | Logitech Z333

Benchmark Results: 3DMark Firestrike: 10,528 | SteamVR VR Ready (avg. quality 7.1) | VRMark 7,004 (VR Ready)

 

Other systems I've built:

Core i3-6100 | CM Hyper 212 EVO | MSI H110M ECO | Corsair Vengeance LPX 1x8GB DDR4  | ADATA SP550 120GB | Seagate 500GB | EVGA ACX 2.0 GTX 1050 Ti | Fractal Design Core 1500 | Corsair CX450M

Core i5-4590 | Intel Stock Cooler | Gigabyte GA-H97N-WIFI | HyperX Savage 2x4GB DDR3 | Seagate 500GB | Intel Integrated HD Graphics | Fractal Design Arc Mini R2 | be quiet! Pure Power L8 350W

 

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.
