@eemiil_ I'd recommend at least a 2TB HDD.

 

Otherwise it looks pretty good. And hey, R9 280/290/x are cheap so if you want one of those they are pretty good.

 

Have a monitor already?

The projects never end in my line of work.

I suggest this. x99 isn't worth it for gaming, altough if you want it you could get 5820k, becouse fast pc's are ballin

I would go withe z97 chipset and the 4790k since you will be saving around 350$ by sticking with the the z97 platform

That's only true if you don't live near a Microcenter.
