This is my current parts list. I'm trying to build a pretty decent gaming rig that I'll be able to upgrade in the future. I'm not entirely sure on what monitor I want but that one looks pretty good. Any advice or suggestions are appreciated.

You have a good build but I have a few suggestions. There is no need to get 16gb ram. I know future proofing but most games don't even need 4gb yet. 4gb is perfectly fine, 8gb is future proofing 16 is overkill and by the time it is standard you will probably want a new computer anyway. I also don't see a reason for you to get 7 professional if you are just gaming with the rig. The monitor you picked out looks pretty good though.

With ram I just figured it's cheap so why not and I want windows 7 professional because I need Remote desktop for work.
