Advice On First build?

[JetD]

Hey all,

-Caution, You are talking to a newbie

I am Building my first PC, It will mostly be used for FPS Gaming (Ex:BF3,MW3) and Light Editing.
I Want to know how my build will stand up to the test.
Around $2,000 will be put into the build, and just the build, not including keyboard,mice,and monitor.

The Specifications so far...

CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz (3.7GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155

Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-D3H LGA 1155 Intel Z77

CPU Cooler: I've done minimal research and they say use this. Noctua NH-D14 120mm & 140mm SSO CPU Cooler Or This. COOLER MASTER Hyper 212
I plan on overclocking, without high temps.

GPU: GeForce GTX 670 FTW 2GB

PSU: CORSAIR Professional Series Gold AX650 650W ATX12V v2.31 / EPSV12 v2.92 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Active PFC High Performance Power Supply

RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600

SSD: ADATA XPG SX900 ASX900S3-128GM-C 2.5" 128GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive

HDD: Western Digital RE3 WD1002FBYS 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive

Case: COOLER MASTER HAF 922

Will it fit?
Is it Good enough?
Anything that will increase performance for a lower price?

If so Please Comment Bad or good, and suggestions are preferred. Again, this will be used for gaming. I'm Sorry if this is posted wrong which i know it is.
Will everything work and be compatible with each other? Please help.

if you are spending this much i would hate to see you going wrong on some parts(also if you are spending this much i would suggest getting a 120Hz monitor)

if you are doing 3D get the 670 if not choose the 7970 Ghz edition

switch the SSD for a 256GB samsung 830

switch the i5 2500k to an i5 3570k

also if you are spending this much i would be expecting you to show it off. if so then an H100 will do you a great job and i would switch the case with a clear side panel

switch HDD into a Seagate barracuda 1TB or WD blue 1TB

take out the AX650 and get an HX750 or an XFX XXX pro 750W(this allows you to SLI)

but all in all for a $2000 build i would spend it more like this
