Your build is pretty much the same as mine (and I just built mine like two days ago). However, there are a few changes I would like to make. First, you motherboard is overkill (but overkill isn't bad in your case since you have met your budget range). The motherboard I have went with for my build was the Asus M5A990FX Pro R2.0. This motherboard is amazing! No problems with it at all and it's price is amazing. And lastly, your GPU. I would not at all try to buy the 280X for one reason: it is out of stock everywhere! For that price you would be paying as of right now for that 280x would be more expensive than a GTX 770 4GB! On top of that the 770 is slightly better in performance and runs a lot more cooler than the 280x.

If you...

If you change those two things, you would have the most similar build to mine as I have ever seen.

P.S. Even if you didn't change a thing to your list, you still will have an amazing build:) Your dream will come true:) Mine did, two days ago :)

The Asus M5A990FX does have LEDs, a standby one, a memory check, and another one I just can't remember off the top of my head. I heard that the Nvidia GPUs have better drivers and they run much cooler. Have you or can you order off of Newegg.com? On that site the 770 4Gb is so much more expensive than what I paid for
