Is this for gaming ?

If so you should have spent less on CPU (4670k) and gotten a better GPU (780)

I know that the GPU isn't the best in the world. But i think that i have an okay baseline because i will keep working on it and i already have new plans for it. 
But it's a start, so we'll se what happens (: 
And there will be pictures!

Looks great, but if it's for gaming it's pretty useless :)

Useless for gaming? You probably aren't serious but still... Maybe not the balance but useless is a strong word. Or you were just kidding I just foammouthed for no reason.

Oh and forgot to say, pretty nice build and the color theme is nice, not the typical red & black

Why? (: 

Because since this is my FIRST EVER build i'm just gonna take it easy and just,, well try. 

So a bit off feedback would be much appreciated. 

I can always change some of the componets, you guys just need to tell to what and why so that i get the maximum out of my system (:

Sorry for my really bad english ç_ç

I meant that you could have similars performance with an i5-4670k or a 2Gb GTX770 if you play just on a FHD monitor.

Sorry again, i'm still learning the lenguage x)

well it's no biggie if you correct yourself :) as saib previously maybe not the best balance, but it doesn't always have to be, and the 770 Is still a strong card, almost the same ad last generations top NVIDIA single gpu. So you'll have to ask yourself wouldn't you be happy with it
