Your cooling solution is way overkill - drop that and go with a Noctua D14 - it's safer than a water block and invest that money in upgrading to an i7-3820 and an Asus Sabertooth X79 board.

The expensive peripherals aren't that essential to the build either - get those last. Put that money into getting the best hardware you can get for the budget.
