Is this PC Good for the price? I think about the long term upgrading of the GPU, so that's why I went with the i5 4690k Because I plan to get 2 PCs.

Not bad but why the H97 mobo with 4690K?

Either get a Z97 motherboard and after market cpu cooler or go with an i5-4590 or i5-4690 cpu.

 

Consider adding an ssd. Will make a big difference in performance outside of games.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

You saying I should go with a Z97? Because Idk if I could fit it in the budget

If you're getting an overclockable CPU, you should so you can actually overclock.

How about slightly overbudget but overclocking with same GPU?
