Building a Gaming PC for the first time (suggestions and help)

Solution
That looks good, but I would drop the Intel Network Adapter. The onboard Ethernet ports on your motherboard are fast, and unless you require super high speed internet, you probably wont need a separate card for it. Take the money you would spend on the network adapter and get a 16GB kit of RAM, you will see much better performance in video editing, 3D rendering, and animating with the extra RAM. From here, you may want to check out the R9 290 from AMD. The 780 and R9 290 both trade blows, and the R9 might be a bit better in the programs you will be running the most.
