Give me a reason for the build, and I can update it. Also, don't buy mouse and keyboard online. Go to a local store and test all the options they have; sometimes, cheaper stuff has a better tactile feeling, due to each person's body being different. Just trust me on that one, you'll thank me later.

Heads up for the 1440p 25' display. You can get a 27 instead, I just wanted to point this out, if you prefer high pixel density. Oh, and btw, this is the CPU cooler you should look for.
