Hi b2runkz...welcome....
 
We need to know the size monitor and resolution you game with.  This makes all the difference in a config.
 
Unless yoy game with 30" at 2560x1600 or do apps like video editing, graphics, etc the x79 platform might be a waste of money.

Hi b2runkz,

I see a lot of little things I would change. With what you stated you would use the system for I think you are on the wrong platform. No need to go X79 for your use. We do need to know what resolution your monitor is and if you might upgrade to a new monitor over 24". We need this info to build a good system for you.

Here is a system that is about the same price but way more powerful than your system. This would be for a monitor with a resolution of 1920x1080/1200.
