Changed a few things mate , the board is better as is the cooler & the WiFi adapter .
The gigabyte board you selected won't let you use a pci-e WiFi adapter with a 2 slot GPU (the slots are too close together)

I'd spend a little less on a headset & a little more on the monitor too personally.

Switch the 960 with 380 4 GB ram if possible. Faster GPU for same or lower price usually.

Switch the 6300 with the 8300 if it's available on site. Usually it's just 10-20 dollars difference between them and you get 33% more CPU power.

Think really hard if you need a DVD-ROM in this time and day. You're better off with a 32 GB stick really.

When asking questions about PC builds, don't include monitor, keyboard, headsets or mouse. Also, Wirefless Network adapter? I guess this is for making the PC able to use WiFi networks ?
