If you're going for an R9 295X2 at least get a 1440p monitor.  Otherwise go for a 290X or 780Ti

Shit man you don't need to drop 4K on gaming.

 

Drop that 2400Mhz kit also, you don't need that speed or 32GBs for gaming. I understand you're a "extreme gamer" but nothing in the gaming world can justify spending over a grand on a single GPU in my opinion.
