Proper grammar is free you know....just saying.

 

Anyways why are you getting a 1TB external HDD and only a 500GB internal drive? in addition that power supply is overkill unless you're planning on crossfire in the future. You also failed to mention what CPU cooler you're going to get, since you're getting a Z87 board and a k series chip I imagine you will overclock at some point and you need a aftermarket cooler for that.

A quality 550-600w power supply is better than a trash 750W, not that Corsair is bad.

 

Why are you storing your games on external??? That doesn't make sense. Why cause unnecessary latency?

Just get 2 500GB 3.5" drives, or just get a 1/2TB drive and partition it.

 

You don't NEED a liquid cooler, it just depends how hard you will push the CPU. In your case I doubt you will need a big overclock, so something like a 212 EVO should be fine. Quality-midrange air cooler > Low-end liquid cooler that may very well leak and destroy your system (ahem H55)
