I am a software engineer, and I use a lot Sharepoint 2013 at home, I would like to build a pc where I can create a virtual machine worth 16gb of ram.
In my non working time I also play games, specially FPS Games like COD MW 3. I am not a professional player, and therefore I am not interested on SLI or Crossfire configuration, as far as I can play smoothly at a good resolution (1920x1088) and at a good FPS (60 or better?),

The question is:
1. Below config is too much for my needs? or is it ok?
What would u suggest based on my needs?

I choosed the fatality board because I like the f-stream mouse port functionality.

Thats a good build. The mouse-port doesn't actually do much, but it's still a pretty good motherboard so if you like it keep it. The cooling is kinda expensive, but if you are looking for a good overclock while keeping it silent, that's a great option. Also the video card will serve you well and im pretty sure can max out most games at 1080p
