BTW thanks everyone for answering, its really helped me a lot. Maybe i wasn't clear on this, but what I mean by "casual gamer" is that i don't play games all day long, and am not a pro gamer or anything; however, i do still play some graphic intense games like Titanfall and Minecraft...
First of all... lol on the graphic intensive games statement. Titanfall and Minecraft are on opposite sides of the spectrum!
If this is a pure gaming build, I would strongly suggest saving money on the i7 unless you just want it to show off to your mates as I can totally understand. The only reason I chose an i7 over an i5 for my machine is because of encoding media. For gaming alone an i7 is just overkill. You do seem however to be totally set on your original build and if that's just what you want and you've got the cash then go for it. You only live once.
However, I noticed comments above ref not needing such a big SSD. Not sure what the reasoning behind that is. Let me just tell you now, my Samsung 512gb 840 pro is one of the best pieces of hardware I have ever bought. It is fast as hell and I don't have to keep moving installations of games around like I did on my 128gb Intel 330 (which was a decent SSD btw). If you can afford the 512gb go for it, I would swap the i7 for an i5 and have a bigger SSD if it was me.
