Your choice of mobo/cpu cooler/gpu/psu are not good, some of it is because of wasting money (performance you will never see or need), and some of it is because of inferior performance and reliability.

Now are you building this yourself or you trying to build it here?

how are you gonna fit a 2600K on a Rampage_III_Black_Edition?

What res you plan on gaming?
