you R very welcome man, at first you raise the budget to 800$ and U have made it overclock-able so that it will cost more and my opinions will be :
1. CPU - Good
2. Mobo - Good
3. RAM - Bad - because it have a very low frequency it will be never stable at overclocking
4. Storage - Good
5. VGA - Fine but at the little expensive price you can get R9 280X or GTX 770 and it's much better
6. Case - so so - you can get a better one with same price
7. PSU - same answer 6 + you need more power for OC

and you can not OC before you get a pro cooler - "important"

*side note : Overclocking will not affect the game performance .

I'll make these changes to your new Build by last 7 points and at 800$ and I'll put a better Build at gaming after...

Would 450W be enough for that video card AND blue led speakers, keyboard, headphones, mouse, case illumination?

I do not recommend First build because of the i5 is better at gaming and possibility of upgrading otherwise u do not need to OC in games to get better performance so you will buy a pro cooler for no performance more in gaming !!! why !?

Second build is pretty good but it's more than 770$ and you said that u wanna 700$ pc and another thing , the PSU isn't enough for GPU U need a higher one at last U will need to update BIOS too.

Third build is the best but for nothing ! you don't need to bay 300$ more to get a little performance more I know that 770 is the best card in whole builds but you do not need to i7 in gaming except that you will use the pc in designing or rendering .
at all I'll make one more build just for you and it will be at middle for all builds and at a excellent price but more than 700$ OK?
