Hi, so im upgrading from my first gaming build and this is what i got so far..

HDD/SSD : http://tinyurl.com/Raptor500
http://tinyurl.com/SSDM4
(I have some additional Hardrives for storage issues)

MotherBoard: http://tinyurl.com/X79deluxe

RAM: http://tinyurl.com/n8a2a2l

CPU : http://tinyurl.com/oud4lrd

OS: Already Got

The things that I need are GPU suggestions( I prefer nvidia), possibly power supply is my old (850W) isnt enough, a Case, some kind of cooling, and some sort of dvd Drive.

Im quite new to this but im well invested into trying to research and so on. Can you guys also help me out if i have anything missing out of this list? Also suggestions on average gamer mouse/keyboard/headset.. (by average i mean none of those 100$+ items)

Thank you so much for takign your time reading this and helping me out.

I think that this build is a bit overpowered for gaming unless you are using it for rendering/video editing/ photoshop. If none of that is your case i will suggest to go for an i5/ 4670k(for overclock) , 4570 for non overclock / 8250 or the 4770k/4770 , this last one is a bit more enthusiast and also goes well for video/photo editing , rendering and all that multithread stuff .
In terms of gpu and 760/770 will do fine , unless you want to spend 500$ for an 780 but this last one is top-notch

850 watts should be more than enough to SLI in the future.

For the mouse, I like the logitech brand for bigger hands (like the G500, G500s) and Razer for small hands (Deathadder 2013). I'll always suggest the CM Storm line for keyboards. I use an analog surround sound headset, the TB HPA2, but they don't make them anymore. I suggest the Logitech G930.
