Only changes i would make would be to ram just because you can get the same for a little less * G.SKILL Sniper Low Voltage *click and it's low voltage for cooler temps and better OC capability

same with SSD, you can get an M4 or * Chronos *click same performance for a little less

your GPU will play every thing high - ultra @ 1080, you leave room to add one later, if you like 1 you'll probably like a 2nd even more

all i really did was just free up some cash for you if you wanted to maybe buy your self a bigger/badder case or the H100 (bigger CPU cooler)
