Generally I would say that you have pretty stout setup there. I would change the RAM to 2 x 4 GB, so you can get the added benefit of Dual Channel operation on the the RAM, but the rest is pretty good. If your ordering in the U.S. I would look at a similar build below (if your not going to OC the CPU):

Gaming performance should be pretty close and I upgraded the SSD to a 512 GB size, so you can put most of your games/apps on it and enjoy the added speed of the SSD. You can also spend about $100 less on the SSD and upgrade the standard HD to 2-6 TB's if you like, but overall the experience should be similar.

You can also insert your favorite GPU (GTX 980) if you like instead of the AMD, but I thought I throw out that option, so you can see the price difference.

I'm on a tablet right now so I can't check cause this thing is slow as hell, but see if the case and mobo have the same form factor, also with the high end parts you have to check the Gpu power requirements and the processor because I may be wrong but I dont think 850 is going to cut the cheese. Also on newegg crucial ssd 256gb, brand spanking new came out recently for $113, the mx100 series. Also don't know if you know Microcenter but they have an awesome LG rewriteable disc drive OEM for around $16, bought one three years ago and still works like new today, the newer revisions of it I believe support the MOdisc technology, basically a new disc technology that can hold a lot more data than regular discs. Definitely going to need the fan dude, the 980 isn't exactly a deep freezer. May want to reconsider your HDD though, read up a lot of bad reviews on both Newegg and Amazon that their drives hardly last more than a year and a half. Also why the Windows 7 bro? I know how you feel about Windows 8 probably being bad because it's a new interface and I had the same feelings but in all honesty after I started using it, it really is better because it syncs all you're different emails and netflix and all other apps you need. It's also a very fast OS, compared to 7, mine boots up in 6 seconds. Other than that you look good, may want to check if the mobo supports the processor you have, processor wattage and socket and such.
