Unneeded CPU for gaming. Overkill RAM. Corsair SSD over a more reputable Crucial / Mushkin. No named PSU. $500 for 1200p. H100 over a Phanteks cooler which is more silent and has same performance. The entire build is complete overkill and unneeded.
Yes and yes. It's still complete overkill considering you could drop down to a 2500k / 670 / 8GB kit of RAM and get relatively the same performance.
Use a long ethernet cable. Wireless is unreliable, not as secure, and you get much higher ping.

you don't need 16gb of ram for gaming and oc a 670 and you'll get the same performance as a 680 with less cost
