If you're gaming then drop to a i5-4690k and pick up a R9 390- unless that is that you have the i7-4790k already.

Kill that power supply with fire before it does.

Otherwise, that build looks good.

Whats wrong with the power supply?

The CX750M isn't a really bad PSU- it's actually okay however there are better options in the same price area. My older brother has a CX750M with a i7-4790k and a GTX 980ti AMP! Extreme.
