Looking for someone to review this computer.

I was wondering if someone could review this computer I built. Keep in mind that I'm only 14 and this will be my first time building a computer. I've worked for like a year to be able to afford this so I don't want want to mess up. Any help will be really appreciated.

@ hamoody235 - if you can afford it, get the build above since it`s a really good one.
If it`s too expensive, I would rather get a cheaper keyboard rather than skimping on the components.
