That is a pretty good build. I have a similar one with the MSI z97 (love it) and a GTX 970. I suggest you get the i5 as it will be better for gaming. For keyboard I would say the corsair k75 RGB or a razer one. The mouse is mostly prefrence I think though and the keyboard is too sort of.

Which Switches ? Budget ?

Always live for tomorrow because you may never know when your game will be over ... I'm totally not going insane in anyway , shape or form ... I just have broken English and an open mind ...
