There it is i personally think that it will be a beast only thing is when amd release there new cards i may change it up. really tired to stay at 1500 CAD but had to add those peripherals and try and match everything as much as possible with the white and black colour scheme. Thanks sanctyy and all others for helping get this list put together.

sanctyy, craig, dcfc or anyone on here would never put those parts together....
4460 locked cpu on a z97 and a after market cooler? Powersupply is also terrible quality. SSD is not the best either.
Keyboard and mouse/looks shouldnt be #1 priority
This would make alot more sense, better performing and better quality. Now that you have a beast pc save up and buy the fancy keyboard and mouse at a later date.

Why, just why would you use an aftermarket cooler on a locked CPU...

Keep temps down, prolong lifespan of cpu.

I mean sure, but especially with that motherboard, it sort of looks like he is planning to overclock on a locked CPU.

Z Motherboards allow for overclocking your CPU, if the CPU allows. Your CPU does not. Your options are to keep the motherboard and get an unlocked CPU, keep the CPU and get another motherboard, or waste the Z97 mobo. That's up to you.
Just posting to say that PSU.... No. The CX series from Corsair is a big time no-no. Especially in a rig of that price range.

Even something like that is a better quality PSU than the CX series. Though it is non-modular.

You said you want a black/white color scheme, right? An H97 mobo wouldn't require a BIOS update, but there aren't any black/white H97's that fit the color scheme.
If you don't mind blue to go with it, great motherboard:

If you MUST stick to the black/white:

NOTE: The latter will probably require BIOS flash.
