Potential build help

[somePcNoob]

Thinking of building myself a pc for uni for gaming/3D modellling (engineering degree) and general work. This is the build I’ve accumulated over several forums and threads I’ve posted however I would ideally like to get it down to around £900 (big ask I know) so I wonder if anyone sees any potential price savings anywhere? If I’m not doing any super intense gaming/editing should I bother with and K cup and z mobo? Also what keyboard/mouse do you suggest?

CPU - Intel Core i5 i5-4690K CPU 3.5GHz Socket H3 LGA-1150) (£169)
CPU Cooler - Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (£25)
Thermal Paste - Arctic Cooling MX-4 4g Thermal Compound (£4)
Motherboard – ASUS Mod 1150 Z97-A (£118)
GPU - EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 Superclocked ACX 4GB GDDR5 Graphics Card (£214)
RAM - HyperX FURY Series 8GB (2x 4GB) DDR3 1866MHz CL10 (£60)
PSU - EVGA SuperNOVA 650W G1 (£72)
Optical - Samsung 24x Retail SATA DVD Writer (£12)
SSD - HyperX 120GB SATA3 3K 2.5-inch Gaming SSD (£60)
HDD - WD 1TB 3.5 inch Internal Hard Drive - Caviar Blue (£40)
Case – Fractal Design Arc Midi (£60)
OS - Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro (£50)
Monitor - BenQ GL2460HM 24-inch (£120)
Total – about £1000

Any thoughts and/or help will be greatly appreciated.

That looks good.

You might find better ram with tighter timing in the same price range.

I would really consider a GTX 970. It should work out to about 100GBP extra, and will give you just over double the performance of the 760. Good bang for your buck.

I like the Crucial MX100 and Samsung 840 EVO more than the SSD you have chosen. Should be similarly priced.

Everything else looks pretty good to me!
