Your newness shows, not your fault though. You have a Xeon CPU, which is generally meant for servers and isn't recommended (in 99.9% cases,) ever. You chose an mATX board and a full tower case. Just to give you an idea, that motherboard would look mega puny in that case, which defeats both purposes of having a small form factor mobo and a large sized case. The Antec Kuhler is meh, I'd go for a good air cooler at that price, and your PSU and HDD choices aren't too great either.

Here is a revised build around the same price, but has the parts that you want.

Xeon wouldn't be near my first choice.
The 7970 you chose is rather expensive.
Left enough room for future upgrades.
Threw in a decent sized SSD for boot/some programs/games.

That would be a lot better for you. (It can also overclock, so no worries on that part.
