You don't need a Z MoBo and an af cooler with a locked i5 as in your build. Remove the cooler, get a H97 MoBo, and use the bucks saved (~$30) in a better GPU like R9 280X from GigaByte. Will make a big difference in gaming.
Drop the Vengeance, they're big and bulky, have large heatspreaders, bit overpriced and heat up pretty quickly too. RJX will be an awesome choice. Everything else looks fine

Almost any Mid tower will accomodate 2 extra fans!PS: Get the Fractal Define R4 mid tower, $80 and everything (including 2 fans) will fit right

Yes that one is a good MoBo too (the D3H).
As for RAM, I'd recommend:
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($79.99 @ Newegg)
^Cheaper, better memory. Excellent heatsinks too

Glad to help!And for the SSD, if your budget allows, then why not! Samsung 120GB EVO is the best around, but you may get a 64GB Sandisk just for OS (No games on it) if budget is tight.
IMP: Don't compromise with GPU for SSD
alright so i have decided to go with this now

Looks like high-ultra 50+ FPS on latest titles in FHD, a very well balanced and superb gaming build to me
Also just wondering on games like Dayz and Forest etc, how many fps do you think i could get on a game like that?
