Custom Build - Current/upcoming games, some 3D

[teb]

Hey guys,

I'm putting together a new build to go into my micro-atx case. I'm really just after your thoughts/comments on whether it will be compatible with itself, and future games & technology.

Primarily will be used for gaming, dabbling in 3D modelling/rendering/Photoshop.

I've attached a screenshot with what I have and what I intend to get, keep in mind that I'll probably be aiming to get this early-mid January so things might change (sales ).

Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated, even if it's way off!

edit: the quantity is 2 on the ram - so it's 16gb
edit2: seemingly has room for my sound card, graphics card + option for crossfire if I wanted to upgrade later on?)

Thanks very much for your posts helpful!

Sorry, it wasn't very clear.. I already own the SSD, SoundCard (for my job), Case & CPU Cooler.

Pretty much tweaked Doomedspeeds build, felt the need to rain in the budget a tad. I dropped half the ram as it's always an option to upgrade later, as well as dropping the GFX card down slightly. Windows 8.1 can wait for the extra 3-5 FPS it'll get me. The motherboard, seemingly was only £30 more because of the integrated network card, picked up the cheaper model here.

1 x Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 WindForce 3x OC Rev2 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card **Black PCB** - £199.99

Didn't even notice the colours to be honest haha

You make a good point there, will add on the slightly higher end mobo here.

Thank you for the help very much appreciated.
