This is my first time building a pc. 
This pc will be a gaming one and a little bit of video recording and editing.

What do you plan to do with that CPU OC-wise?  I ask because that cooler may be overkill for example if you're not planning to OC

I'm not usually one to recommend AMD, but I think the benefit here is perf/$ if I'm not mistaken

 

Ans as for the cooler, you're probably on track with water cooling then

Not sure I fully understand... the 380 is an AMD card and thus uses CrossFire, not SLI, and when using SLI, VRAM is not additive

I would go for the xeon route but i really want the OC option. I would not mind the extra cost of the 4790k. I have also change the Psu, to a Evga.

And any mouse and keyboard suggestions??
