Monitor and Stuff: I will be running an Asus VG248QE and possibly 2 of those in the future or upgrade to 4K/1440p.

 

Budget/Location: My budget is $1670 max and $1700 without rebates. Yes I am in the US. 

 

Peripherals: We don't need to worry about the peripherals pricing into the pc as other people are buying them for me and the same for a Windows 7 disk  :P . 

 

Upgrading: I wouldn't really upgrade anything except maybe an i7 4790k or X99 if z97 gets outdated. Maybe 32gb of RAM. I don't think I would ever need to upgrade my GTX980Ti to an SLI or something.

 

My Aim: Mostly for gaming and some video editing along with daily use and bunch 'o web browsing.

 

My Build: 

 

CPU: i5 4690k

CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken X61

Mobo: ASUS Z97-A/USB3.1

RAM: G.Skill Sniper Series 16GB

SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB

HDD: WD 1TB Blue

Graphics Card: Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX980Ti

Case: Phanteks Enthoo Pro

PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 1000G2 

OD: Asus DRW

 

 

Tell me if anything else would be more money saving and a better choice such as the psu downgraded to an 850w or something. I don't know just tell me what to change and your thoughts. Thanks :D 

 

 

Also: My keyboard is gonna be a Corsair K95 RGB Blue. They have it on the corsair website as buy while supplies last. Should I buy it, I'm hesitant that I shouldn't because the reason they canceled the RGB MX Blues line was because of the "inconsistent" clickyness of the blues. http://gaming.corsair.com/en-us/corsair-gaming-k95-rgb-mechanical-gaming-keyboard-cherry-mx-blue
