I could some advise on my current build

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1t996

I want this build to maximize power and efficiency within my price range.

no I don't plan on overclocking

I do plan to do some gaming (league of legends mainly)
I want it to do 60 fps

I already have a keyboard and mouse

I plan on using my headphones

So tell me how I can alter this build to fit my specifications.

Any advise is appreciated and thank you for your time.

If your are going to be doing some music production, assuming digital audio a sound card with a half decent dac would probably be in your best interest. Depending on Budget and Essence STX or something do the line would probably be a good choice, also includes a headphone amp.
 
well for a music production pc, you got it pretty much all wrong

get this

-if you arent going to overclock, why are you getting a k series chip and a z series board? they are labeled specifically for overclocking.
-dont need fast ram
-you will want a SSD to boost boot times and application loading times
-no reason to get a black drive when the blue drive is actually faster
-a properly built case
-what is a music production build without a proper sound card?
-not a POS psu. do not ever buy a psu that isnt a brand name

Any reason for the CPU cooler if i don't plan to over clock, or can I just drop that to save some money?
