except for the psu looks good, grab pretty much anything from seasonic, or a antec high current gamer which will be about the same price and be much more reliable

Probably; however, we cannot tell the future.

Also get a Antec High Current Gamer for the PSU, The CX series has a low ambient temperature and uses bad capacitors. Not meant for mid-high end PCs.

750 Ti isn't a warm GPU but I'd suggest not OCing and replacing when possible.

i thought corsair was a very reliable brand. Guess i was wrong

Corsair AX, AXi, HX, HXi and RMi are good. RM are decent. CS, CX, VS and GS are tosh

EDIT: The only PSU manufacturers you can blindly trust are SeaSonic and Delta.

i went for that motherboard so that i could use crossfire in the future if need and also so that i wouldn't have to change it anytime soon. I dont mind skipping on the SSD. Also from where i come from fractal design stuff are very rare and i really like the aesthetics of the spec 02. Will the cpu u mentioned bottleneck my gpu by any chance? I initially wanted to go with an i5 4690k but that went way over budget

i5 4460 is a better price:performance product than a 4690K - you can get a Z board if you want but the SSD will make the system a lot more snappy.

yea thats y i trashed the idea for 4690k. Maybe ill get an SSD later down the road. i just dont want my cpu to bottleneck my gpu, thats my main concern.

Which is better i5 4460 or i5 4590? if i get better performance for just 15$ more then ill definitely get the 4590

4460 - you're paying 15$ more for almost no gains - the reason I got a 4590 is cause it was on sale for the same price :D
