Latest PC Build

Okay guys I sat down last night and thought about what I'm gonna do to future-proof my PC for at least 2 years and I came up with this build:

Fractal Design Define R4
Intel Core i5-4670K 3.40GHz
Cooler Master Seidon 120M
MSI Z87-G45 Intel Z87
Asus GeForce GTX 760 DirectCUII OC 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card x2
Corsair Vengeance Pro Red 8GB (2x4GB)
120GB OCZ Vertex 2 SATA II 2.5-inch Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
2TB Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 3.5" SATA III Hard Drive - HDD
850W XFX Pro XXX Edition 80PLUS [P850X-XXB9]

Then my monitor is gonna be a BenQ XL2411T 24 inch Widescreen LED Monitor.

Any thoughts on what I should do to improve it or should I just leave it as it is, any comments would be appreciated.

And just to make it clear, this is a strictly Gaming PC. I won't be using it for anything apart from playing games, using skype and that sort of stuff. So don't tell me to get a 4770k just because it's better, because for my situation it's not.

Wow, I really can't think of anything to improve that, that's one hell of a PC

It's amazingly cheap over here in the UK as well, it's only around £1300. I'm set on getting this unless something else comes up, thank's for the feedback.

What a piece of shit. Not even a custom loop. Using a WS mobo. No Velociraptors.

WTF you talking about?
WS mobo are not all that bad.
Also the the main ssd is made by Samsung which doesn't make the Velociraptors and the WD you really don't need Velociraptors.

Ok, if you are making a gaming oriented machine like that, why would you get a work-station motherboard over something like a X79-Deluxe, R4E, Big Bang or an Extreme11? That's like putting a Quadro 6000 in a gaming machine. Why would you?

Also a Velociraptor isn't an SSD, so obviously I wasn't saying replace the Evo with it, that'd be stupid. I'm saying why not grab a couple of HC Velociraptors in RAID 0 and then use the Blacks as main storage/backup (even then that's pretty dumb, using WD Red's would be better for storage).

I'm just saying that combo deal was put together with no purpose behind it other than "look at this terribly optimized build that costs much more than any sane person would spend".

I would agree with the Extreme11, but you would be ending up paying an extra 100$.

Well for the Velociraptors that would be just adding on.
In my opinion I would not go with the Velociraptors simply just because the WD Black WD4001FAEX 4TB is good enough.

SSD for booting off and the 4TD for storage.

You could add extra Velociraptors for more storage.
The WD Black WD4001FAEX in this case has a Dual processor speed.

The only reason why I would buy the Velociraptors is if I was turning it into a low end server.
