That M.2 SSD is not faster than the regular 850 EVO as it also runs on SATA 3. It gets much hotter though. You will have to get the 950 PRO if you want something faster. And also if the main purpose of the build is gaming then a 6700K would be a better option. 

Well, with a $3000 budget an $700 left anything is possible..

Damn you got a lot of budget for pc. I got a build for you.

It's black rgb system. You can change to any color.

The cooler is expandable, which means you can make your gpu watercooled.

 

Edit: I would suggest building custom water loop, but that's way too hard for first pc builder

socket 2011-3 build(performs better, but costs more): http://pcpartpicker.com/list/dPZhtJ
