Wouldn't hurt to get Windows on kinguin.net or /r/microsoftsoftwareswap to save some $$$ on the retail version.

 

Also, that MOBO supports OCing but your CPU doesn't. That isn't bad necessarily, as you could upgrade to a 6600k or something in the future. Just wanted to make sure you knew.

 

Other than that, looks good.

i7 4790k | MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition | G.Skill Ripjaws X 16 GB | Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB | 2x Seagate Barracuda 2TB | MSI GTX 970 Twin Frozr V | Fractal Design R4 | EVGA 650W

A gaming PC for your budget: $800 - $1000 - $1500 - $1800 - $2600 - $9001

For the graphics card, I will be transferring a 750ti from my old PC into this new build until I can afford a better one.

Good build, no need for a Z170 chipset as you have a locked processor. Some people might say things about the power supply, but what do I know.

Seems pretty good to me. If you're using the build solely for gaming, you may want a different monitor.
