should be in new builds and planning section... but...

Seriously dude?

Actual reasons would help. 

 

With regards to your build, there are a lot of things that can change. I would wait until all the new hardware is out and buy and build it all at once.

That powersupply is way more than you need, unless you're considering going dual/triple GPU in the future...

Not really, looks like the GTX 980 is a 275W GPU as the GTX 780 is. Go with the 850W one :)

I don't see why you're going with x99 a better option is z97 as there is little gain for gaming especially as you aren't going for the octa core nor watercooling. Regards to the ddr4 I don't think you can add extra ram after even if they are the same.
