Instead of investing more in Mother board you can buy a bit less costly one and invest in GPU and CPU
Other thn tht ...Everything is cool

But my suggestion is go for New Gen i.e., 6th gen i5 or i7 and a DDR4 RAM (but obvious)

I agree. You should go for a Skylake build. This would be very nice, but I can make a less expensive one if you need it to be so.

I wasn't sure what case that was. The MB is the Shell Shocker for today, so that price is today only.

PSU is a bit overkill.
If you can save money getting a 550w.
That CPU isn't going to pull a lot of power, nor is a RX 480.
Take that money and add it to an SSD.
