The list is good, but you have done what alot of gaming builders do; you do not need a i7, ever, for gaming a i5 is cheaper, sometimes faster, and does not need a bigger cooler, thus you should get a i5-4670k or 90k, using the money you save, get a NH-D15, as it is better than even the H100i, cheaper, and more reliable, any left overs use to get a OS as Matt has said, and potentially a better SSD, such as the Intel 530-730 Series, or Samsungs 840-850 Pro/Evo (850 Pro is best), or a bigger SSD, as 120gb might fill up too quickly, you also should get a better power supply, the CX series isnt the best, but should do if your budget is stretched, instead IF you can; get the Evga Supernova G2 750w, or Seasonic's M12II 600w Psu.

While looking over the list above, there is an item missing. A completely overlooked item that is usually not placed on a part list is an operating system. If going with windows, based of of the RAM provided in the list above go with a 64 bit version.
