Downgrade power, its a bit overkill and if you just use the computer for gaming, less memory is not bad. 8 gb is fine

Typical gamer build -

3570k (only i7 if you do video rendering and etc)

asrock extreme 4 (too many features you'll never even use on p8 delux)

660ti (get 2 if you want best performance)

H100i for extreme overclock or else get hyper 212 for more conservative

Corsair 650d case because you don't need a full tower

8gb ram (only super hardcore rendering need 32gb)

500W psu (600 if sli 660ti)

64 or 128gb ssd

3770k, Asrock Extreme 4, 16GB Dominator Plat, AX760i, 250GB BX100, 1.5TB Seagate, Win 7 Home Prem

Buy Samsung 840 120GB for SSD

Samsung 840 is not that spectacular (not to be confused with 840 Pro). At that price I think the G.SKILL Phoenix III or the ADATA XPG SX900 would be a better choice. You could get the Phantom 410 mid tower which is in the same style. Full towers are necessary for large form factor motherboards and large watercooling radiators, beyond that you can fit pretty much anything in a mid tower, multiple graphics cards, many hard drives, whatever.

Samsung 840 Pro is one the highest quality consumer SSDs. The standard version is good if you find a sale.

Athlon X4 760K | MSI A88X-G43 | 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws 1333Mhz | MSI R7 260X 2GB | Corsair 300R | Corsair CX430 | 640GB HDD | Windows 7 64-bit
