I have been trying to get a pc built for a while now and several things have made me decide to do it myself. I used the logical increments guide on reddit and went with a pc listed as outstanding. I have no idea if that is to much for what I intend to do or not enough. I have the components picked out and I am ready to buy. I am looking for advice on the build and if I am spending to much in one place and not enough in another. Also if I have everything I need. This will be mostly a gaming pc for MMO's. I want to have good fps and use relatively high graphics. That is about all I am aiming for.

Not really sure about that cooler. That's quite a bit to spend on an air cooler, I'd make sure it is significantly better than its $30 proven counterpart, the CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO.

EDIT: Glanced over a review and seems like some cool tech with that "vapor chamber" stuff.

Rest looks good to me.

prefer this one instead
it will be less expensive if you replace the cpu cooler by a cheapest one like the CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO

took a different cooler,read some reviews about it.You could find your choice at least cheaper,

Didn't pick the nh-d14 because of those ugly fans but it's better.Or the Phanteks PH-TC14PE,
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/phanteks-cpu-cooler-phtc14pebk
but that one is 170mm tall and can't find anything about cpu clearance regarding the case with that fan already on the side panel.
You could also look at an aio watercoolingset like,
