Ok, let's start with the budget and what country you're from? You for sure don't want that V3 case. I'm not going to go into it in depth, as it's been covered many times before, but it's an extremely poor case choice. There are better cases to be had by far, even without going nuts on the budget. If you bought that case you would hate everything about it from the minute you took it out of the box until the day you smashed it with a sledge hammer in your backyard. It's that bad, really.

Next, you don't want the Smart series PSU. They're very bad. Tier 4, as seen here:

Especially for a high end unit like that build, you want something that's Tier 1 or 2, of 550w-750w...

It would also be extremely helpful to know what resolution and on how many monitors you plan to be working with?
