check pc specs

[psychotic_haze]

Im kinda new at the whole customize a pc thing so I have been slowly trying to teach myself about the different components. I have looked on a site called www.komplett.com and set up a pc. I'd like to check with people that have more knowledge than me whether these pc specs are any good.
