You're not gonna benefit from the LGA2011 platform if you're just gonna be gaming, go Z87 / 4770K instead.

[miyabwah]

It'll do, but you don't need LGA2011 unless you're video editing or something.

[s3ns3]

maybe some lag here and there...

[Altecice]

Dump the Platinum RAM, its no different to the other RAM only more expensive. (try find some 2133)

Also think about all that money you are spending on a 900D.... really not needed unless you are planning to WC the cpu/gpu and other things.

dump the 900d and get something cheaper and put that money towards a second 290x and wreck all the games

Also might want to think about an SSD (Samsung 840 pro) or something along those lines

I also don't see an OS in there.

You could get a better one

ditch 2011 for a start not needed at all for gaming and get an i5 and a 780 ti or r9 290 non reference

Oh boy.

 

You don't have a budget that high and use a Thermaltake PSU. Get some Mushkin or G.Skill ram instead - way better price to performance ratio vs all flash. Like others stated, a good i5 is all you need if the primary function is gaming.

it will yes

[WoodenMarker]

Pretty large waste of money for gaming. 

An expensive mobo, ram, case, etc will do nothing for performance. 

Something like this will have similar performance for much less: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/2rYO1
