Here's my version of your build

Please note that I changed all the parts to smaller parts, so you might want an even smaller case.

 

Do not use a corsair CX PSU for an overclocked build.  The PSU is the last place you wanna skimp. It's the most boring but also the most important part/

I also got built in wifi for your motherboard!

Hey this is my first time building a custom compute. I have a link to a build that I have made. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/wY7hQ7. Any suggestions on any changes? My budget is around 600- 700 dollars.

 

Thanks,

This system won't able able to play current titles, plus the PSU is overkill.

Yeah, I didn't want to change his CPU, and as for PSUs I only trust EVGA lol. 

Plus, the PSU is not good. Evga's G2/GS/B2 Series PSU's are better.
