But yes it would all work. I'd change the RAM and PSU, the green sticker clashes.

I am guessing you are only playing at 1080p?

Depending on your budget id go, 970/290x or possibly wait and go for a or one of the new AMD cards that are coming out. But the 960 will be fine

YOUR BASKET
1 x EPIC BUNDLE: Intel 4790K, Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming 7, Kingston 16GB 2400MHz Kit and Superflower 750W PSU **£50 SAVING** £566.96
1 x MSI GeForce GTX 960 Gaming 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card - Red £199.99
1 x Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX Mid Tower Case - Gun Metal £139.99
1 x Samsung 250GB 850 EVO SSD 2.5" SATA 6Gbps 32 Layer 3D V-NAND Solid State Drive (MZ-75E250B/EU)

£89.99
Total : £1,013.44 (includes shipping : £13.75 Ex.VAT).

You can choose another case, this one happened to be in my basket at the time.

Also the 4790k is a bit overkill just for gaming. A 4690k will do the job nicely

YOUR BASKET
1 x Intel Core i5-4690K 3.50GHz (Devil's Canyon) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail £193.99
Total : £203.59 (includes shipping : £8.00 Ex.VAT).

Apart from the colours clashing is there anything wrong with the specs function wise?

Go with a better quality PSU

YOUR BASKET
1 x EVGA SuperNova G1 650W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply (120-G1-0650-XR) £67.99
1 x SuperFlower Golden Green HX 650W "80 Plus Gold" Power Supply - Black £66.95
Total : £144.54 (includes shipping : £8.00 Ex.VAT).

I would also say Gigabyte board over MSI for their great support. I have this board in another build and its nice. Room to add another 960 later.

YOUR BASKET
1 x Gigabyte Z97X-SLI Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard £89.99
Total : £99.59 (includes shipping : £8.00 Ex.VAT).
