Gaming PC build advice (Pricing, components, etc.)

[xI McCloud29 Ix]

I am using a $1,500ish budget for a new desktop. I am NOT building it myself (maybe in the future) but I decided to go to a site where I can customized my own. I found this site called eCollegePC that seems pretty good in terms of parts and price. I am a complete amateur and this would be only my second desktop bought (first one was purely for basic use, though I play emulators and GH3 with 3DAnalyze) so I am far from certain about this. I will list a build that I already configured on the site:

Processor: i5-3570K 3.4GHz 6MB Cache Quad-Core
CPU Cooling: Corsair H60 120mm Water Cooler
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-Z77-HD4 (Intel Z77, 2xPCI-E, 6xSATA, 4DDR3)
Memory: 8GB (2x4GB) Corsair Vengeance 12800 DDR3 1600Mhz
Primary Hard Drive: 60GB OCZ Agility 3 SATA3 SSD
Secondary Hard Drive: 1TB Western Digital Caviar Black 7200RPM 64MB Cache SATA3 6Gbps
Media Drive: 24X LG SATA Dual Layer DVD burner/player
Video Card: 2GB Geforce GTX 660Ti GDDR5 PCI-E Dual DVI/HDMI
OS: Windows 8 Premium 64 Bit
Case: Corsair Black Carbide Series 500R (4 5.25, 6 3.5) 4 fans, Audio/USB3.0
Power Supply: 650watt Corsair CMPSU-650TX V2 80 PLUS Certified
Networking: Onboard LAN
Sound: Onboard Sound
Expansions: Internal All in 1 Card reader
Case Fans: 2x 120mm Case Fan
Lighting: Green Neon Light


Add in cable management for maximum airflow and 3 year warranty + Two year hassle free pickup and return it comes out to be $1,496 without taxes. A 5% discount makes it $1,421.20 without taxes. Good/Bad build for a good/bad price?

Drop that water cooler. An air cooler will do the same job and be quieter.

Get 120gb min SSD or drop it all together. (Samsung 840 PRO or Crucial M4 or OCZ vertex 4)

Get a less expensive case and a gtx670.
