Stupid, A 2600 with a sick board. Get a 2600k so you can actually overclock it. That is what that "k" means. And where do you think you are going to put that 80mm fan? There is no place for it on your case. At LEAST get a 80 + Bronze PSU, no need to bow out all of your parts over 30$. Ridiculousness how much that RAM is. It is Slow, at least get 1600 mhz. Get the 680 instead of the 580, for the extra 100 you get 10x the performance. Overpriced HDD. Just spend the extra 25$ for the 1TB.

Also, If you have a Local Microcenter near you they have GREAT deals on Processors + Mobo combos. They have the 2600k for 279.99 and 50$ off your Motherboard. Or 179.99 for the 2500k. When I bought my computer they had the 2600k for 229.99

Here is what I suggest you get with $1400. I know for a fact it's a more bang-for-buck build compared what you
listed.

No need to spend money on $300 motherboards with features that you more than likely never use. This is the best build you can get. The highest end AMD videocard out on the market today ( destroys 680 when OC'd clock for clock ) - 2500k CPU is just what you want, 2600k is a waste if this is mainly strictly gaming. Super reliable and extremely fast Crucial SSD as boot and 500gb for movies / songs, etc. Great Antec PSU - easily handle crossfire due to it not using a lot of power. ASRock board supports PCI 3.0 and people have beengetting great OC's on this board. The case is totally up to you - I just listed the Storm Enforcer due to me having it and having great experiences with it.
