So this is the first time I'm building a pc and first time picking the parts as well so I'm hoping people could look this over and make sure it meets my needs and that it should all work together just fine (and fit in the case if possible). Also since this is a first time build if anyone could tell me based on this any extra tools or things i may need to pick up to get this done or any things specific to this build i should watch out for.

I'd like to be able to play pretty much any pc game coming out on close the highest settings along with doing a little video rendering on programs such as adobe premier. I'd be using other programs such as mumble, skype, steam, microsoft suite. Other things I'd do is some video converting, photoshop, desktop mirroring in my living room and allowing access to a media server on the pc, and of course again gaming. I'll be using dual monitors and plan on running windows 8.1

Peripherals I have and plan on using with it (not all at the same time):

2 1080p HDTV's one is a 50 inch the other is a 24 inch both would be connected through HDMI
A Razer usb keyboard (uses 2 usb ports)
A razer USB mouse
turtle beach X12 headset
720p usb web cam
1-2 usb 3.0 external HDD's (one is 500gb and the other is 1TB, sometimes connected and would be sharing ports with one another and flash drive)
2 Xbox One Controllers
Usb Flash Drive (sometimes connected)
Iphone

It is according to this list

The RM's are a tier 2a, the G2's are a 1. Really the difference between them would be marginal, but the G2 is cheaper at the moment so it's a better option regardless.
