For the CPU cooler you'l want they Hyper 212 EVO, not the Hyper 212 Plus. Its a bit better and essentially the same price so why not.

But the rig seems fine, I cant find any issues with it.

Can't find your answer ? Ask !

Look solid but i agree with Azeem here go with the EVO, personally i would go with the Sabertooth over the Maximus and get a 3570K over the 2500K
