Yeah it's a good build but you should use the current gen of cpus and motherboard and I hear that you won't notice any real speed increase from the hybrid drives and they are less reliable so I would go for an ssd and a data hard drive. Try out www.pcpartpicker.com . It will let you put in the components you want and see prices. I put together a list of what I would do but it is a little over a $1000, but there are some really great people on here that I'm sure will post some even better parts lists for you.
