Hey guys. Over the past week or so I've been working on putting together a gaming computer for roughly $1400. I'm just looking for one last validation to that the build actually works together.

http://pcpartpicker.com/user/eadlef/saved/3iO8

Motherboard - ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z
CPU - AMD FX-8350 (going to get cooler and overclock at a later date)
RAM - Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (2x8) 1600MHz
SSD - Samsung EVO 840 2.5" 120GB
HDD - Western Digital Blue Caviar 3.5" 1TB
GPU - EVGA GeForce GTX 770 2GB
Case - Fractal Design R4 Define Black Pearl
PSU - XFX 650W Bronze 80+ Semi-Modular ATX
Optical Drive - ASUS DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD
OS - Windows 8.1 OEM (64-bit)

I'm really naive about putting parts together so I need to have a validation of EVERYTHING working together properly. Will the PSU have the right cables? Will everything fit the case (including storage)? Do all parts work together? Etc.
Also, what kind of fps can I expect on maxed out games like Battlefield 4 and Crysis 3?
Monitor is a PHILIPS 273E 27" 1920x1080.
Thanks in advance!

That's a nice looking rig. I don't see anything that will cause you compatibility problems. Should snap right together. :)
Assuming your running everything at stock frequencies, you should get rather high frame rates on very high settings on most games.
Maxing out games like BF4 or Crysis 3 might tax your system a little bit. Even the highest end graphics cards have to put in some work running those games maxed out. But you should still get playable frame rates at 1080p with most of the eye candy turned on.
Good luck!

It depends on what your going to be doing with your PC. If your mainly going to use it as a gaming machine, then 8GB is more than enough. If your going to be any kind of video or audio rendering or working with very large Photoshop graphics files, then stick with the 16GB.

I do render vector illustrations form Adobe Illustrator as well as render animations (2D) in various programs. I want to focus this build on mainly gaming, though. I have another computer that can handle my drawing needs.
