You seem to have a decent setup. Some things to consider:

Do I really need a 256gb SSD? Typically, only the OS and a game or two go on the SSD. NOTE: SSDs only decrease loading times in games.

Ultimately it's up to you - if you don't need that huge SSD, buy a 120gb one and use the left over money to buy a much better CPU.

That's a bit helpful thanks, because My reason for an SDD was to back up important files and to put windows on.
