for what a 2tb ssd- the hdd + 512gb or even a tb ssd should be fine...

drop the aio liquid cooler and get some good air cooler

AND don't pair unlocked cpu with h97 - you will need a z97 to overclock or you can drop the k and save some bucks

Get a noctua d14 or corsair h60.Also you need a z97 mobo in order to overclock, and change the psu,

the NEX series from evga are not that good, get a GS/G2 from evga

Do not buy corsair fans. They are the jet engines of premium fans.

 

Get yourself some noctuas, be quiets, bitfenix, or w/e. Basically anything else is quieter than corsair fans.
