Hi , i plan to build a computer myself but my knowledge is quite limited.

Did some simple research and came up with this list. Can you advise whether are there any incompatible issue among the parts ( especially the casing , not sure whether the component can fit in or not ) or even lacking any component.

The usage for the computer are just some casual gaming ( dota 2 , l4d ) and watching videos online.

Casing : Fractal Design DEFINE R4 Black Pearl
MOBO : Gigabyte GA-H97-D3H
Harddisk : Samsung SSD 840 EVO 2.5-inch SATA 120GB & WD Bl*ack 1*TB SA* TA 6G*B/s, *64MB *Cache*, 720*0RPM
CPU : Intel® Core™ i5-4690
RAM : G.Skill RipjawsX 1600MHz 8GB(1x8GB)
Graphic : Asus GTX750TI-OC-2GD5
PSU : Coolermaster V7*50 Semi-Mo*dular
Optical : Asus Internal 24x DVD writer (DRW-24B3ST)
Cooler : Coolermaster Hyper 212X
OS : Microsoft Windows 7 Professional (64 bit) OEM

Thanks for your help.

No point getting WD black just get WD 1tb Blue and 600w superflower 80+ gold PSU, 750w is too much for 750ti as 750ti doesnt use much power. if you are not overclocking just use stock cooler.. save more money and use that money on a better graphic card for ram try get 4x2gb for dual channel as it performs better then a single channel and also if you dont mind you can buy a second hand gfx at marketplace but make sure you buy those card that still has warranty and i saw a HD7970 lightning edition for $220 at marketplace you can try get that as this card performs way better then 750ti but its cheaper or around the same price range... Do you need Windows 7 Pro? If not just get the normal windows 8 as its cheaper

You should get crucial mx100 256GB or samsung evo 250gb since ssd is quite cheap now. 120gb space run out fast.
ram is better to get 2x4gb
psu should get superflower gold.
dun think u need a after market cpu cooler, stock cooler is enough.
os just get window 7 oem enough.
