I shaved off $45 by making some insignificant changes (and also bumped you up to 3000MHz RAM instead of 2666MHz):

You can save more by going with the UD motherboard instead, but if I remember correctly I think you chose this motherboard for the Thunderbolt 3, right?

He's designing around a Thunderbolt 3 motherboard so this wouldn't work.

You should really have two forms of storage, one for your Windows, programs, and games, and the other for photos, videos, documents, and other data. The SSD will be for your C-drive. If your C-drive gets corrupted, you can reformat it without affecting your data.  If you live near a Micro Center you can save about $55 on that CPU/MB combo. You may not reach your maximum overclock with the Hyper 212. Something like a Mugen 5 Rev. B would be better, but would eat up all of your savings.
