Need Honest opinions about my new build

Hello i recently built a gaming/workstation about 2 weeks ago.

 

Everythings working just fine

 

Graphics card isnt the best as its a couple years old.(Gtx 750 ti)

 

Some of the parts i had sitting around like optical drives and the 1tb hard drive,so id throw those components in the build.

 

Btw the cooling is pretty good im getting great temps as i have 5 fans in the case.

 

Please tell me anything i should change or you recommend.

Haswell is still used by upgrading people because of the DDR3 support.

would you recommend a better 1150 cpu for me?

He was asking why you bought a 1150 CPU instead of a 1151.

You could've gotten a SanDisk 500GB Ultra II for $100 instead of spending it on 2 drives. Also, the new AMD RX 460 is the same price as the 750 Ti and is way better in overall performance.

well the graphics card can use an upgrade the new 460 or 470 would do this build some good also if you want to stay on the 1150 socket i would recommend an i5 4460 its a pretty damn solid cpu for the price just under 200$ even less if you go on ebay and find a used one. i never had a problem with having a boot drive like that 128 ssd but if you were going for better gaming performance you maybe should've put that money towards a better Gpu. in my opinion 1 stick of 8 gigs of ram would have done you better if you wanted to upgrade to 16 gigs of ram. Why on earth do you have 2 optical drives if i may ask
